Claire Fontaine |
| I like the paper you make |
| We were introduced |
| By a lover of mine |
| And now she’s gone |
| But I still have you |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Claire Fontaine |
| You seem to bring |
| The best out of me |
| And the things that |
| I write to sing |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Are you a lumberjack or something? |
| Does your father own a forest |
| Are the nicest trees for choppin'? |
| Claire Fontaine |
| And Claire Fontaine |
| Your sheets are very smooth |
| I like to rub my pen across them |
| Do you feel the way I do |
| Claire Fontaine? |
| Claire Fontaine |
| You seem to bring |
| The best out of me |
| In the things that |
| I write to sing |
| Claire Fontaine |
| If newspapers used |
| Your paper for the news |
| Things would seem less terrifying |
| Just because of you |
| Claire Fontaine |
| And were you in a garden |
| When they said the war had started |
| Do you think you’d write a letter |
| That would start 'my dear departed…' |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Claire Fontaine |
| You seem to bring |
| The best out of me |
| And the things that |
| I write to sing |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Oooh-oh |
| Claire Fontaine |
| I’m going home for Christmas |
| They may refuse me entry |
| 'Cause you’re native to this country |
| Claire Fontaine |
| But as a foreigner relinquish |
| A pad of paper so distinguished |
| I’d say 'never, never, never |
| I’ll take this pad of mine to heaven' |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Where maybe I would choose |
| To write a fan letter or two |
| I might write one to Andy Warhol |
| And the other one for you |
| And you could rest assured in knowing |
| They’d be on your paper too |
| Claire Fontaine |
| Who are you? |
| Claire Fontaine |
| You seem to bring |
| The best out of me |
| And the thing that |
| I write to sing |
| Claire Fontaine |
