Claudie

It's so long since I sang songs for you

I forget all the words I once knew

I could look back but I can't waste the time

Did it matter they sometimes didn't rhyme?

It's so long since I sang songs for you

It's so long since you smiled just for me

Now your smile's just an old used-to-be

Does it matter that I can't take the time?

Would you rather I write you one more line?

Can my songs once again be for you?

Claudie made a fool out of me

Made me find another place to be

I've been living alone

In a house that wasn't my own

With Claudie is the place I long to be

When I left, did you think of me crying?

Did you care that I felt I was dying?

I pretended that I don't give a damn

All along I've known what I really am

I'm a fool little Claudie just for you

Claudie made a fool out of me

Made me find another place to be

I've been living alone

In a house that wasn't my own

With Claudie is the place I long to be
