Clair |
|
Clair, the moment I met you I swear |
|
I felt as if something somewhere |
|
Had happened to me |
|
Which I couldn't see |
|
And then |
|
The moment I met you again |
|
I knew in my heart we were friends |
|
It had to be so |
|
It couldn't be no |
|
But try as hard as I might do I don't know why |
|
You get to me in a way I can't describe |
|
Words mean so little when you look up and smile |
|
I don't care what people say, |
|
To me you're more than a child |
|
Oh! Clair, Clair |
|
Clair, if ever a moment so rare |
|
as captured for all to compare |
|
That moment is you |
|
It's all that you do |
|
But why in spite of our age difference do I cry |
|
Each time I leave you I feel I could die |
|
Nothing means more to me than hearing you say |
|
I'm going to marry you |
|
Will you marry me Uncle Ray? |
|
Oh! Clair, Clair |
|
Clair, I've told you before |
|
Don't you dare |
|
Get back into bed |
|
Can't you see that it's late |
|
No you can't have a drink |
|
Oh! all right then but wait just a bit |
|
While I, in an effort to baby sit, |
|
Catch of my breath what there is left of it. |
|
You can be murder at this hour of the day |
|
But in the morning this hour |
|
Will seem a lifetime away |
|
Oh! Clair, Clair |
