Little girl, where did you go?
Playing in the fields when the sun goes
Before the moon had changed at night
You had fallen out of sight

Little girl, why did you go away?
I was missing you when you went astray
Didn't mean to lie, didn't mean to cry
I just wanted to say goodbye

Little girl went to the city now
Got lost in this place up high
All the things you learned were almost real
But that denies our strength to heal

Little girl, why did you go away?
I was missing you when you went astray
Didn't mean to lie, didn't mean to cry
I just wanted to say goodbye

Walking down the street
Walking
My little girl...

Little girl gliding in the sky
came back down to say goodbye
I regret having scared you away
All my fault but nothing to say

Little girl, why did you go away?
I was missing you, when you went astray
Didn't mean to lie, didn't mean to cry
I just wanted to say goodbye

Walking down the street
Walking
My little girl...

I had a girl
Little girl
She loved me more than I used to know
I loved that girl
I thought I would be with her forever
