Margot at the Wedding movie - Clair lyrics

rate me

Song by Gilbert O'Sullivan<br /><br>

Clair, the moment I met you I swear<br>

I felt as if something somewhere<br>

Had happened to me<br>

Which I couldn't see<br>

<br>

And then<br>

The moment I met you again<br>

I knew in my heart we were friends<br>

It had to be so<br>

It couldn't be no<br>

<br>

But try as hard as I might do I don't know why<br>

You get to me in a way I can't describe<br>

Words mean so little when you look up and smile<br>

I don't care what people say,<br>

To me you're more than a child<br>

Oh! Clair, Clair<br>

<br>

Clair, if ever a moment so rare<br>

Was captured for all to compare<br>

That moment is you<br>

It's all that you do<br>

<br>

But why in spite of our age difference do I cry<br>

Each time I leave you I feel I could die<br>

Nothing means more to me than hearing you say<br>

I'm going to marry you<br>

Will you marry me Uncle Ray?<br>

Oh! Clair, Clair<br>

<br>

Clair, I've told you before<br>

Don't you dare<br>

Get back into bed<br>

Can't you see that it's late<br>

No you can't have a drink<br>

Oh! all right then but wait just a bit<br>

While I, in an effort to baby sit,<br>

Catch of my breath what there is left of it.<br>

You can be murder at this hour of the day<br>

But in the morning this hour<br>

Will seem a lifetime away<br>

Oh! Clair, Clair <br>

<br>
