 Verse -1:
So wild, standing  there  with her hands in her hair.
(addA)
 I can't help remember just where she touched me
 There's still  no face  here in  her place
 Verse -1:
So  cool, she was  like  jazz on a summer's day
Mu- sic,  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
 
-2]
 Love songs fill the night, but they don't tell it all,
 Not how lovers cry out just like they are dying
 Her cries hang there in time somewhere
-2]
 Someday, some good wind may blow her back to me,
 Some night I may hear her like she used to be
 No it can't be that warm with the wind in her arms
 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 a same  boy I used be.___
