Lyrics:
She was something very special to meThe kind of girl you'd like to seeIn a movie or a rosaryShe could be straight-laced or homespunOr free and easy on the runShe could be meek and mild or full of funShe liked country lanes and aeroplanesAnd cigarettes would make her strangeAnd when she wanted you she made it plainShe would never say where she came fromIt didn't seem that she had anyoneTo answer to or dwell uponShe liked candlelight and good wineAnd I would call her any timeOf day or night she didn't mindThe was nothing that I wouldn't doTo prove to her my love was trueAnd she gave to me a dream or twoThere were times when she would never appearFor days and then she'd disappearBut now the days have turned to yearsI was something she could useLike a good friend or a pair of shoesOr any kind of good newsNow the eastern sky is crimson and redAs I lie here in my lonely bedAnd think about the things she saidShe said darling there will come a dayWhen I must run far awayI will go my love and you must stayShe departed in the early springShe didn't leave me anythingTo follow or to find herShe was something very special to meThe kind of girl you'd like to seeIn a movie or a rosary
