To and from my Switzerland
Pleated skirt and heart in hand
Never knowing where I stand
The middle child, the family plan
The airplane lands and lands and lands
In Switzerland

Dearest picture on the wall
They said we won’t be here for long
I guess I knew it all along
Another spring, another fall
And Mama says I’m growing tall
In Switzerland

4 x  Will you remember me
3 x Oui, c’est une Américaine, Américaine, o oui
Switzerland
Switzerland

My sisters always left by chance
Germany, the South of France
But how was I to understand
Their sad good-byes without a glance
They blew a kiss and waved their hand
To Switzerland

4 x Will you remember me
3 x Oui, c’est une Américaine, Américaine, o oui
Switzerland
