Valerie

Valerie

Steve Winwood



So wild, standing there

With her hands in her hair

I can't help remember

Just where she touched me

There's still no face

Here in our place



So cool, she was like

Jazz on a summer's day

Music, high and sweet

Then she just blew away

Now she can't be that warm

With the wind in her arms



Valerie, call on me

Call on me, Valerie

Come and see me

I'm the same boy I used to be



Love songs fill the night

But they don't tell it all

Not how lovers cry

Just like they're dying



Her cries hang there

In time somewhere

Someday some good

Wind may blow her back to me

Some night I may

Here her like she used to be

Now she can't be that warm

With the wind in her arms



Valerie, call on me

Call on me, Valerie

Come and see me

I'm the same boy I used to be



(Instrumental Interlude)



So cool, she was like

Jazz on a summer's day

Music, high and sweet

Then she just blew away

Now she can't be that warm

With the wind in her arms



Valerie, call on me

Call on me, Valerie

Come and see me

I'm the same boy I used to be



I'm the same boy I used to be
