Valerie

I didn't have a chance in art schoolYou offered to help this poor foolAnd I was more than pleasedThat you had taken me under your wingAnd during those first encountersI sensed a curious powerBut I was ill equippedTo understand your subtle hintsOh Valerie!Oh! I never thought it would go this farOh Valerie-hee!I never thought it would go-o-o-o this farI never suspected your intentionsWhen you showed unusual affectionBut when you kissed my cheekMy world collapsed my knees went weakThat moment just made no senseI lost my nerve and innocenceI turned and ran awayI'll never understand that dayOh Valerie!Oh! I never thought it would go this farOh Valerie-hee!I never thought it would go-o-o-o this farIt's so easy to see nowYou dropped a thousand cluesBut no matter which way I turn I've something to loseSomething to lose!Oh Valerie!Oh! I never thought it would go this farOh Valerie-hee!I never thought it would go-o-o-o this farThe last I saw of ValerieShe was followed in the school's art galleryBy some aspiring soulI hope she understands her roleStill stumped in my confusionWith one last innocent illusionI've got just this to sayI wish there had been an easier wayOh-ho! ValerieI never thought it would go this farOh Valerie-hee!I never thought it would go- whoah-o-o-o!Oh Valerie!Oh! I never thought it would go this farOh Valerie-hee!I never thought it would go this far
