When I noticed her

the first time

lwas outside running

barefoot in the rain
She lived in the

house next door

And her nose was pressed

against the window pane
When I looked at her
She smiled

and showed a place,

where two teeth used to be
And I heard her,

ask her mom
If she could come outside

and play with me
Soon the days of sand and shovells
gave way to the mysteries of life
then i noticed she had changed and

i looked at her throu' different eyes
We became
as one and

Had a love without

beginning or an end
And I've loved her since
Every doll was Shirley Temple

Soda pop was still a nickel

Jam was on her fingertips
Soda pop was still a nickel

Jam was on her fingertips
Milk was circled on her lips
After many years

our love grew silent

And at night I heard her cry
When she left me in the fall
I knew,
that it would

be our last goodbye
Iwas man enough to

give her everything
She needed

for a while
in searching for
a perfect love

lfound that I could not

give her a child
Now she lives a quiet life
And is the mother of a little girl
And every time I pass her house my

thoughts go back into another world.
Because i see
her little girl

Her nose is pressed

against the window pane.
Soda pop was
still a nickel

Jam was on her fingertips

Milk was circled on her lips .....
