Testo di The City

Three years ago she left me in the valley Said, the city life was what she wanted more She said, life in the valley was to simple Excitement was what she wanted more She said, she'd be important in the city Didn't she know how important she was here For three years now I watched alone and waited Somethin' told me that I would see her once again Today I'm gonna drive down to the station And I'll pick her up and bring her home at last So often I've said that I'd forgive her For anything that's happened in the past Last week I got a letter from the city Sayin' they were going to send me what was mine She's commin' back to stay here in the valley She's returning in a simple box of pine I guess I'll take a ride by the river Even though my heart would break And I'll give her flowers like I used to give her We're together once again for old time's sake Oh, she never was important in the city Just a girl whose lucky star will never shine But she's commin' back to stay here in the valley She's returning in a simple box of pine
