“If You See Her Some Day”

She left my two bedroom apartment
But you voyager, if you see her one day
Come back and tell me, come back and tell me
Tell me if her hair still has that scent of love
If her lips are just as dreamy

But promise me you won’t get too close
Because if you touch her bronze skin
You’ll become delirious, delirious
If I had not been careful enough with her splendor
My eyes would still be burning, be burning

She’s from an ageless time filled with stories
Of Arab princes, love marriages
Freed slaves, and more gallant stories

I often forget to come home for a night or two
My friends wonder about me
Worry that I’m so difficult to figure out
But you tell them, I’m just figuring life out

She left my two bedroom apartment
But you voyager, if you see her one day
Come back and tell me, come back and tell me
Tell her I’d give for her my last breath
My very last breath
