Abe Abraham
Girl from Petaluma
If you find your way across the bay
And you’re far from anywhere
In a town called Petaluma, she lived there
If you go in spring when fields are green
And the sky’s a golden white
Can you hear her singing gently in the night?
If you see her holding someone’s hand
Please don’t tell me for awhile
For the girl from Petaluma, she was mine
The night we kissed was much like this
The rain upon her brow
And the girl from Petaluma, she did smile
And tell me something that I don’t know now
Tell me she was asking if I’m doing alright
And if I been alone and
If I ever talk about her anymore
Long brown hair and a winter stare
And eyes you feel like wine
If you see her laugh don’t tell me how they shine
If you see a worry on her face
Would you tell her this for me?
There is love inside of everything you see
And tell me something that I don’t know now
Tell me she was asking if I’m doing alright
And if I been alone and
If I ever talk about her anymore
Though I never thought she’d leave this heart
When we had so far to go
But the girl from Petaluma, she did so
This song is all the left with me
And at times I miss her so
And if you go to Petaluma, let her know
