Valerie Lyrics

[00:10.64] So wild, standing there
[00:12.98] With her hands in her hair
[00:16.35] I can't help remember
[00:21.73] Just where she touched me
[00:24.53] There's still no face
[00:29.88] Here in her place
[00:34.65] So cool, she was like
[00:38.06] Jazz on a Summer's day
[00:40.67] Music, high and sweet
[00:46.22] Then she just blew away
[00:49.11] Now she can't be that warm
[00:55.71] With the wind in her arms
[01:02.34] Valerie, call on me
[01:06.66] Call on me, Valerie
[01:10.82] Come and see me
[01:14.52] I'm the same boy I used to be
[01:19.03] Love songs fill the night
[01:24.06]
[01:29.51] But they don't tell it all
[01:32.97] Not how lovers cry out
[01:38.02] Just like they're dying
[01:41.23] Her cries hang there
[01:46.43] In time, somewhere
[01:51.28] Someday, some good wind
[01:54.65] May blow her back to me
[01:57.39] Some night I may hear
[02:02.84] Her like she used to be
[02:05.49] No it can't be that warm
[02:10.37]
[02:12.67] With the wind in her arms
[02:18.68] Valerie, call on me
[02:23.19] Call on me, Valerie
[02:27.40] Come and see me
[02:30.83] I'm the same boy I used to be
[02:35.35]
[03:08.37] So cool, she was like
[03:11.26] Jazz on a Summer's day
[03:13.96] Music, high and sweet
[03:19.71] Then she just blew away
[03:22.34] Now she can't be that warm
[03:29.22] With the wind in your arms
[03:33.68]
[03:35.87] Valerie, call on me
[03:39.71] Call on me, Valerie
[03:43.95] Come and see me
[03:47.78] I'm the same boy I used to be
[03:51.98]
[04:02.03] I'm the same boy I used to be
[04:05.49]
