Leaving this town like a one man parade
Headed straight for the Pacific blue
It seems all that I love has been left far behind
All the hundreds of days without you

But it won't be long before
I grow lonely, lonely
Long before I grow lonely again
I'll be singin' this song
To remind me about you
Singin' this song so I never forget

Page after page I keep writing these words
Tryin' to sum up my life to a tune
There's no rhyme for my reason and no such demand
For my mind was made up rather soon

But it won't be long before
I grow lonely, lonely
Long before I grow lonely again
I'll be singin' this song
To remind me about you
Singin' this song so I never forget
