When I noticed her the first time

I was outside running barefoot in the rain

She lived in the house next door

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

Soon the day's of sand and shovels

Gave way to the mysteries of life

Then I noticed she was changing and I

Looked at her through different eyes

We became as one and knew a love

Without beginning or an end

And everyday I lived with her

Was like a new day dawning once again

And I've loved her since every doll was Shirley Temple

Soda pop was still a nickel

Jam was on her fingertips

Milk was circled on her lips

After many years our live grew

Silent and at night I heard her cry

And when she left me in the fall I knew

That it would be our last goodbye

I was man enough to give her

Everything she needed for a while

And searching for a perfect love

I found that I could not give her a child

Now she lives a quiet life

And is the mother of a little girl

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

And I've loved her since every doll was shirley Temple

Soda pop was still a nickel

Jam was on her fingertips

Milk was circled on her lips
