If You See Her Say Hello lyrics

by Bob Dylan

If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring, is livin` there, I hear
Say for me that I`m all right though things get kind of slow
She might think that I`ve forgotten her, don`t tell her it isn`t so.

We had a falling-out, like lovers often will
And to think of how she left that night, it still brings me a chill
And though our separation, it pierced me to the heart
She still lives inside of me, we`ve never been apart.

If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
I always have respected her for busting out and gettin` free
Oh, whatever makes her happy, I won`t stand in the way
Though the bitter taste still lingers on from the night I tried to make her stay.

I see a lot of people as I make the rounds
And I hear her name here and there as I go from town to town
And I`ve never gotten used to it, I`ve just learned to turn it off
Either I`m too sensitive or else I`m gettin` soft.

Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
If she`s passin` back this way, I`m not that hard to find
Tell her she can look me up if she`s got the time.
