| Give me a moment to say how I feel
|
| Ready or not this time I feel like I’m willing to be candid with you
|
| You are pretty good with the clever remark
|
| But whether or not you mean every word
|
| That you say I really don’t know
|
| We don’t ever get that far
|
| I just come and then I go like seasons and
|
| I think I love you clara
|
| I love you clara
|
| I am old enough to want to know you better
|
| Stairway down to an uptown train
|
| A university gig that I don’t know very much about
|
| Sing with the choir take a taxi home
|
| On the way back to for green but
|
| Way of the Manhattan bridge
|
| You said you were sick of it
|
| Garbage on the sidewalks and the sirens all day long
|
| I love you clara
|
| I love you clara
|
| I am old enough to want to know you better
|
| It seems like you’ve got a lot on your plate
|
| I can’t be someone I’m not
|
| I am just a boy to distract you from the stresses and the strains
|
| Of an urban life
|
| You took me in without question
|
| And I need you more than you need me clara
|
| I love you clara
|
| I am old enough to want to know you better |
