(Verse)
The girl that got away just put her money down
On a one way non-stop ticket to Paris or London Town
She'll do just what she fancies, so far from your control
Sign up for classes with no plan or goal
Her name was Desiree, she's somewhere else tonight
Drinking wine red like roses by ? light
She plays a few old records, but skips your favorite tunes
They drift away like memories, like little grey balloons

(Chorus)
Girl gotta way, just like a summer day
Knows just when to say goodbye
Do you recall the night when you left her in the rain?
There'll be no goin' back, you can't erase that night in Spain
You underrated heart, you really failed to see
She'd fly from you and find a home across the sea
Here, with me

(Chorus)
Girl gotta way, just like a summer day
Knows just when to say goodbye
Do you recall the night when you left her in the rain?
There'll be no goin' back, you can't erase that night in Spain
You underrated heart, you really failed to see
She'd fly from you and find a home across the sea
Here, with me
