Valerie

Others seem to find your eyes While I lag behind You're the perfect pearl And I'm the salty summer brine And though we might converge in paths We'll never intertwine So I will dream Of you Again Coffee shop at nine Or bowling in the lanes at twelve A friendly "Hi," "Hello," or deeper conversation delves In passing I might know you And you might know me as well So I will dream Of you Again Empty names flash on a screen Photographs alluringly Placed side by side, with witty lines To seem like we're all happier inside Though it won't come to love Just fill the void, sure that's enough But you break back into my brain Try or not it's all the same Valerie, oh don't you see We're never meant to meet But God, I'll chase our love down to the ends of every sea Surely you'll forget me Or you're gonna regret me But still I'll dream Of you Again Can't get out of bed, 'cause I'm still dreamin' of your smile Imagine summer days instead of three books in a pile And on the days I go to class You're with me all the while So still I'll dream Of you Again Valerie, oh don't you see We're never meant to meet But God, I'll chase our love down to the ends of every sea Surely you'll forget me Or you're gonna regret me But still I'll dream Of you Again When the nights get hard, you're in my head Oh, wish that you were here with me instead Oh, can't take it anymore Throw my phone on the floor Two feet out of the door Valerie, I love you more Surely you'll forget me Or you're gonna regret me But still, I'll dream Of you Again (One more time, I wanna hear it!) Valerie, oh don't you see We're never meant to meet But God, I'll chase our love down to the ends of every sea Surely you'll forget me Or you're gonna regret me But still I'll dream Of you Again But still I'll dream Of you Again (Yeah baby!)
