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 the 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 smlle.
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 difference do I cry,
each time I leave you feel I could die.
Nothing means more 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, what there is left of it.
You can be murder at this hour of the day
but in the morning tonight will seem a lifetime away,
oh Clair, Clair, Clair.
