Nobody forgot when you went away And left this town without a word to say Going down south to a simple life You were always the wind and never a wife Do you ever wonder what you left behind I never got to tell you what was on my mind Nobody knows you quite the way I do No one can love you the way that I can It's been so long and I'm thinking of you Just say the word and I'll be your man I told my pride I'd never take you back But I've seen enough to know better than that As long as I live, as long as I live The least I can do, is learn to forgive
