[00:00.58]Lonely, the life that I once led.
[00:06.31]Strange, the paths on which we tread.
[00:12.56]Led me to you, unlikely but true.
[00:18.42]Sabra girl, clouding my view.
[00:27.46]Rainy the day, the first time we met.
[00:33.09]Deep was the dark, forever my day.
[00:39.54]It didn’t seem wrong to sing a sad song.
[00:45.81]Sabra girl, seen you before.
[00:54.50]Early the morning, you’re sad, the good bye.
[01:00.21]With a wave of your hand and a smile of your eye.
[01:06.41]So lately did meet, no sooner to part.
[01:12.87]Sabra girl, homeward must start.
[01:53.81]Rosie, the lines you wrote with your hand.
[01:59.85]Reading between them, to misunderstand.
[02:06.03]I made the mistake you said not to make.
[02:14.83]Yes, reading your letters, conviction did grow.
[02:21.20]I thought it a chance; I knew I must go.
[02:27.59]It’s hard to believe I could be so naive.
[02:33.97]Sabra girl, flattered but deceived.
[03:06.69]Now you just told me that friendship is off.
[03:12.72]I’m forced to repair the breach in my wall.
[03:19.01]Illusions and dreams, as usual, it seems.
[03:25.40]Sabra girl, they’ve been my downfall.
[03:34.59]Lonely, the life and dismal the view.
[03:40.76]Closed is the road that leads to you.
[03:46.97]Since better can be, as friends we’ll agree,
[03:53.43]Sabra girl, time will cure me
