Clair

Clair, the moment I met you, I swear
 I felt as if something, somewhere
 Had happened to me
 Which I couldn't see
 And 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
 You get to me in a way, I can't describe
 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
 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

 Clair
 I've told you before, don't you dare
 Get back into bed
 Can't you see that it's late
 No, you can't have a drink
 Oh, all right then
 But wait just a minute
 While I, in an effort to babysit
 Catch up on my breath
 What there is left of it
 You can be murder at this hour of the day
 But in the morning the sun
 Will see my lifetime away
 Oh, Clair
