She was a brown eyed girl
The one George sings about
Came from the southern land
Right here in the mist
She read anthologies
On italian poets
Who are no longer there
But speak through her
When she left me
Singing something like
Ti ho amato sempre
Non ti ho amato mai
Like the italian poets
She said goodbye
Amore vieni, amore vai
I've never seen such eyes
As deep as the nights
When I turn of the lights
And let the moon be my guide
And such spontaneus smiles
Of those born under the sun
Like girls in italian poems
She came from another time
When she left me
Singing something like
Ti ho amato sempre
Non ti ho amato mai
Like the italian poets
She said goodbye
Amore vieni, amore vai
And when the moonlight shines On her waterfront
I wonder if she still remember the Long night
When her path crossed that of this Country boy
When she left me
Singing something like
Ti ho amato sempre
Non ti ho amato mai
When she left me
Singing something like
Ti ho amato sempre
Non ti ho amato mai
Like the italian poets
She said goodbye
Amore vieni, amore vai
