Sides face, grand square
She said if I ever deceived her
She'd be gone before I could count 10
I guess that I didn't believe her
Now just look at the trouble I'm in
Circle left
She's gone, gone, gone -- gone, gone, gone
Left allemande, swing, promenade
The more that I cry the faster that plane flies
Farther across the sky

Heads (sides) promenade, take 'em 1/2 way and go
Walk into the middle & square thru you know
Go all the way & then you touch 1/4, friend
Scoot back and the boys run
Pass the ocean, give me a wave, all 8 circulate
Swing the corner girl, promenade
The more that I cry the faster that plane flies
Farther across the sky

Sides face, grand square
I've lost every right to be happy
I've lost all the heaven I've found
She told me she'd leave and she left me
Before my first tear hit the ground
Circle left
She's gone, gone, gone -- gone, gone, gone
Left allemande, swing, promenade
The more that I cry the faster that plane flies
Farther across the sky

Sides face, grand square
If I only knew where to find her
I'd crawl there on my hands and knees
Each tick of the clock just reminds her
She's 1 second farther from me
Circle left
She's gone, gone, gone -- gone, gone, gone
Left allemande, swing, promenade
The more that I cry the faster that plane flies
Farther across the sky
