On the strength of early judgement She was labelled in my mind As the kind of girl I would easily forget A man who's always moving couldn't really be expected To remember every girl he's ever met There were many new directions and so many roads to go And it really looked so easy to forget With a mind upon tomorrow and a care for nothing more I rode off into the Paraguayan sunset
In the course of early findings of a young man on the road Every girl would be a reason I should stay But romantic young illusions slowed me down along the road So they faded with the passing of each day There were many new tomorrows and so many ways to go And I thought it would be easy to forget But on wings of early morning and a hundred nights before I've come to know the meaning of regret
On the wings of early morning And the first plane out of here With nothing but a suitcase and a prayer Just the distant destination coming closer all the time And a hope to God I find she'll still be there There were many new beginnings and I gave them all a go But it wasn't quite so easy to forget On the wings of early morning and a hundred nights before I've come to know the meaning of regret
