Intro

    

Verse 1

She's one of those girls who seems to come in the Spring
One look in her eyes and you forget everything
You had ready to say,
and I saw her today, yeah

Chorus

A younger girl keeps a rolling cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind 
I remember her eyes, soft dark and brown,
said she'd never been in trouble, or even in town
A younger girl keeps a rolling cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind 
   
A younger girl keeps a rolling cross my mind

Verse 2

And should I hang around, acting like her brother
In a few more years, they'd call us right for each other
And why?
If I wait I'll just die, yeah

Chorus

A younger girl keeps a rolling cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind 
I remember her eyes, soft dark and brown,
said she'd never been in trouble, or even in town
A younger girl keeps a rolling cross my mind

Verse 3

She's one of those girls who seems to come in the Spring
One look in her eyes and you forget everything . . . .
