I met a girl who
had long, sleek black hair,
just south of here
on a beach somewhere
She said "Hello!"
and then she
smiled at me,
oh, so hungrily,
starting my day off
so beautifully,
But when I turned around
to look again,
she just wasn't there,
she wasn't anywhere,
she just wasn't there.......
Chorus-
Love is elusive,
too often it
just slips away,
just when you
think you've found
what you needed most...
it's gone to stay...
it's gone to stay...
I had a little puppy
when I was wee,
and we had a lot
of fun together
that puppy and me.....
but 14 years
goes by so fast,
and puppies were
never built to last
and he was gone.....
Chorus-
because....
Love is elusive,
too often it slips away
just when you think
you've finally found
what you need most...
it's gone to stay...
it's gone to stay...
it's gone to stay.
Not long ago,
my Mother always gave
us uncompromising love,
that kind of love
most girls and boys
would be dreaming of,
But age is relentless,
it kept turning the pages,
of her very short days,
then she was gone away...
then she was gone away.
Chorus-
because....
Love is elusive,
too often it slips away
just when you think
you've finally found
what you need most...
it's gone to stay...
it's gone to stay...
it's gone to stay.
love is so elusive
but it's worth all the pain
for as long as it remains.
