The Girl I Left Behind words and music by Chris Gangi Out and over the clear blue yonder Where the river meets the canyon far and wide I sat and gazed and set myself to ponder Why I left that darling girl behind And I ride the road I'm bound And I see what she's done to me And I bide my wasted time On the girl I left behind These nights they seem to last forever And the days they drag on in my mind But these feelings they always make me wonder
Why I left that darling girl behind And I ride the road I'm bound And I see what she's done to me And I bide my wasted time On the girl I left behind Well my life, it leaves me here so lonely Slowly drifting as I walk on down the line It seems I'm out here without knowing Why I left that darling girl behind And I ride the road I'm bound And I see what she's done to me And I bide my wasted time On the girl I left behind
