Lyrics

Clair, the moment I met you, I swear

I felt as if something, somewhere

Had happened to me, which I couldn't see, but 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

But you get to me in a way I can't describe

The 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 (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 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 (oh Clair!) Clair

Clair, I've told you before "don't you dare"

"Get back into bed, can't you see that's it late?"

"No you can't have a drink"

"Oh all right then, but wait just a bit"

While I, in an effort to babysit

Catch up my breath, what there is left of it

You can be murder at this hour of the day

But in the morning this hour would seem a lifetime away

Oh Clair, Clair

Clair
