Clair

Clare, the moment I met you I swear
I felt as if something, somewhere
Had happened to me, which I couldn't see
Then, the moment I met you again

I knew in my heart that 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, Clare, Clare

Clare, if ever a moment so rare
Was captured for all to compare
That moment is you, all that you do
But why in spite of our age difference do I cry?
Each time I leave you feel that I could die
Nothing means more to me than hearing you say
I'm going to marry you, will you marry me?

I'm going cray, oh, Clare, Clare

Clare, I've told you before don't you dare
Get back into bed, can't you see that it's late?
No, I can't have a drink, oh, all right then
Just wait just a bit
While I in an effort to babysit
Capture my breath, what there is left of it
You can be murder at this hour of the day
But in the morning the sun would see my life turn away

Oh, Clare, Clare

Oh, Clare
