Clair, the moment I met you I swear,
* /
I felt as if something somewhere
* /
Had happened to me, wich I couldn´t see. And 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 Clair, Clair.
-----------------------------------
/ *
Clair if ever a moment so rare
* /
was captured for all to compare
/
That moment is you, in all that you do. But why
In spite of our age diff´rence 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 alright then but wait just a bit
While I in an effort to baby sit
*
capture my breath when there is left of it.
/
You can be murder at this hour of the day
But in the morning, this sorrow will seem a
/
lifetime away. Oh Clair, Clair
