The Girl You Left Behind

The Girl You Left Behind is a song in An American Tail: Fievel Goes West which is sung by Tanya.

Lyrics:
Tanya:

Do you ever miss the girl you left behind?

Is the girl you left behind out there tonight romancin'?

Makin' eyes at someone else and singin', is she dancin'?

Only the girl you left behind is real when you're sleepin'

Puts the teardrops in your eyes from secrets she is keepin'

Happy just playin' a tune and dance the whole night away

Hope the girl you left behind will be there for you someday

Lonely is the wind that blows, you know you'll always miss her

Lonely is a lover's heart, if only you could

Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her

All the girls you left behind could fill up California

Please don't leave them too darn long, I think I oughta warn ya

Absence makes the heart go cold and makes a heart to wander

If you stay there by their sides, you'll feel their hearts grow fonder

Cats:

Hope you see her someday

Hope I find my way

Back to the girl I left behind

Tanya:

So tell me you will never roam

Cats:

(We swear we won't go roaming)

Tanya:

You'll be by your fireside

Cats:

(We'll all be home sweet home and kiss her, kiss her, kiss her)

Tanya:

So where's the girl you left behind?

Cats:

She's waitin' for her sister

We won't stop until we're home we'll hug and hug and kiss her

I'll find the girl

I'll find the girl

I'll find the girl

I'll find the girl

All:

You'll (I'll) find the girl

You'll (I'll) find the girl you (I) left behind

Tonight! Tonight! Tonight!

That's right

Alright!
