Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things and what you're doin'
And in my head I paint a picture
'Cause since I've come on home
Yeah, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
So won't you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie
Did you have to go to jail?
Put your house up on for sale?
Did you get a good lawyer?
Hope you didn't catch a tan
Hopе you'll find the right man who'll fix it for you
And are you shoppin' anywherе?
Changed the color of you hair?
Are you busy?
And did you have to pay the fine?
That you were dodging all the time
Are you still dizzy?
'Cause since I've come on home
Yeah, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Oh, won't you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things and what you're doin'
In my head I paint a picture
'Cause since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Oh, won't you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?

Well, sometimes I go out by myself
There are times when I go out alone
And I look across the water
