Jenny Say (Why Did You Move Away?)

I met a girl from my own home town
Who stole my heart and turned it upside-down
Every night when i went to bed
I fell in love with the words she said

She looked like a gypsy with eyes so brown.
Always made me smile when she came around
Always cheered me up when i was feeling down
She was the sweetest girl that i ever found

But she gave me a heart ache
When she told me "i'm moving away"
Was there something i could tell her just to make her stay?

Jenny say, why did you move away?
Was there anything i could've done to make you stay.
Jenny say, why did you move away?
Why don't you come back to me?

Summer was over and the wind got cold
She was back in her home town, I was told
Back to the place where we first laid track
Where she stole my heart and never gave it back

But what if i told her i want it back?
Would she give away everything she had?
It wasnt hard to be away from you
when i told her i was in love with you.

But you gave me a heartache
When you told me "i'm moving away"
Was there something i could tell you just to make you stay?

Jenny say, why did you move away?
Was there anything i could've done to make you stay.
Jenny say, why did you move away?
Why don't you come back to me?
Jenny, please come back to me.

Why did you move away?
