Lonely the life that once I led
Strange the paths on which we tread
Led me to you, unlikely but true
Sobre girl, clouding my view
Rainy the day the first time we met
Deep was the talk, forever mind it
It didn't seem wrong to sing a sad song
Sobre girl, soon you'll be gone
Early the morning you said goodbye
With a wave of your hand and a smile of your eye
So lately didn't mean no sooner depart
Sobre girl, homeward must start
Instrumental
Rosy the lines that you wrote with your hand
Reading between them to misunderstand
I made the mistake you said not to make
Yes, written letters in fiction did grow
I thought it a chance, I knew I must go
It's hard to believe I could be so naive
Sobre girl, flattered but deceived
Instrumental
Now you just told me that friendship is all
I'm forced to repair the breach in my wall
Illusions and dreams as usual it seems
Sobre girl, late then my downfall
Lonely the life and dismal the view
Closed is the road that leads to you
Since better can't be as friends will agree
Sobre girl, time will cure me
