Paroles
[Verse 1]
I was one as you were one
And we were two, so much in love forever
I loved the white socks that you wore
But you don't wear white socks no more
Now you're a woman
[Verse 2]
I joked about your turned up nose
And criticized your school girl clothes
But would I have then paced these roads to love you?
[Verse 3]
The seasons come and seasons go
Bring forth the rain, the sun, and snow
Make Valerie a woman
And Valerie is lonely
[Verse 4]
No more to roam on the snow hills of Hienton
Undecided were the guardians of the older generation
A doormat was a sign of welcome in the winter months to come
And in the summer, laughing, through the castle ruins we'd run
[Verse 5]
For the quadrangle sang to the sun and the grace of our feeling
And the candle burned low as we talked of the future
Underneath the ceiling
[Verse 6]
There were tears in the sky
And the clouds in your eyes, they were just cover
For your thighs were the cushions
Of my love and yours for each other
[Verse 7]
The seasons come and seasons go
Bring forth the rain, the sun, and snow
Make Valerie a woman
And Valerie is lonely
[Verse 8]
The songs still are sung
It was fun to be young
But please don't be sad where you are
[Verse 9]
I am who I am
You are who you are
Now Valerie's a woman
Now Valerie's a woman
Now Valerie's a woman
