I was one as you were one
And we were two so much in love forever
I loved the white socks that you wore
But you don't wear white socks no more
Now you're a woman


I joked about your turned-up nose
And criticized your school girl clothes
But would I then have paced these roads to love you.


For seasons come and seasons go
Bring forth the rain the sun and snow
Make Valerie a woman
And Valerie is lonely.


No more to roam on the snow hills of Heinton
Undecided with the guardians of the older generation
A doormat was a sign of welcome
In the winter months to come
And in the summer laughing
Through the castle ruins we'd run.


For the quadrangle sang to the sun
And the grace of our feeling
And the candle burned low as we talked of the future
Underneath the ceiling.


There were tears in the sky
And the clouds in your eyes were just cover
For your thighs were the cushions
Of my love and yours for each other.


For seasons come and seasons go
Bring forth the rain the sun and snow
Make Valerie a woman
And Valerie is lonely.


The songs still are sung
It was fun to be young
But please don't be sad where `ere you are
I am who I am
You are who you are
Now Valerie's a woman
Now Valerie's a woman
Now Valerie's a woman.
