Jan is tired of her inhaler

When she moved here from back east

Still she said she'd stay beside me

And she brought me a new peace



I saw her smilin' in the summer sun

I saw her 'neath the quiet moon

I knew right then I'd never leave her

She had taken me so soon

When she went

She went



And we settled near the blue lagoon

Listened all night to the wind

Sometimes we laughed, sometimes we cried

Sometimes we just went for a swim

All that time my love kept growing, growing, growing

Made me feel so warm inside

All the time her smile glowing

And it gave me so much pride

When she went, yeah when she went



Yeah, now we sit here in the evening

And listen to the crickets sing

And we'll be here twenty years from now

And we'll hear the crickets sing

And then she'll go, oh, oh, oh, oh

She'll go
