She's a girl in my life

She's my friend, she's my wife

But she lives away from me

She needs to feel that she is free

And even though, it's all I've got

With her I don't need much

To know I've got a lot

She's a dove caught in flight

Without a landing place in sight

But if I know her like I think

She'll find a place before she sinks

She's off alone, on her own

Leaving me to sit beside the telephone

Cast away loose the knot

She's getting sun on the spot

Where her ring used to be

Before feelings were stronger than our promise

Yesterday we walked hand in hand

You were with me, you were my own

You were my girl, you were the lover of my life

She's the girl that I love

She's the one that I think of

I have to hold on to the hope

That I did not miss the boat

So life goes on day by day

All that's left for me is hit my knees and pray

Cast away loose the knot

I'm getting sun on the spot

Where my ring used to be

Now it feels so empty

So I put it back, I had to live

And I hope you can forgive

That I've tried to forget

That my feelings were stronger than a promise

And I promise to be stronger than...
