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. I joked about your turned-up nose criticized your school girl clothes- but would I then have paced these roads - to love you?                   BRIDGE:    For seasons come & seasons go.  Bring forth the rain     -    the sun & snow-      make Valerie a woman.   And Valerie is lonely. No more to roam on the snow hills of Hienton. Undecided with 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. 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. There were tears in the sky & the clouds in your eyes were just cover. For your thighs were the cushions of my love and yours for each other.    {Repeat Bridge then Intro} The songs still are sung.    It was fun to be young. But please don’t be sad where you are. I am who I am.   You are who you are.         Now Valerie’s a woman.          Now Valerie’s a woman.      Now Valerie’s a   wo     -     man.
