Oh Clara, you know I never meant to cause you pain
When we kissed in the fog and the rain
I felt my heart beat again
Oh baby, you're an actress, you're a famous girl with status
I'm a poor boy I'm just an outcast
I can never give you what you can't get
Hey, oh Clara de La Rosa she hails from Costa Mesa
Her baby green eyes, with the dark hair
And when she walks by all the boys stare
Oh baby in the orange dress with sunlight in the open fresh air
Dancing with the daylight, no cares, kiss me in the summertime
We'll dance all night to the Frank Sinatra song
And we'll laugh all the time, in the morning watch the sun
But you knew you were something else
And I was just your boy, I know you have someone else
Bet you always keep me around
I don't want to dream when I do it's of you
Who you are, who you are
So just make up your mind, won't you run with me girl
We'll go far, we'll go far
Oh Clara, you're a starlet in the sky you're brighter than a comet
He's a poor boy who can't afford you and I'm a rich man and I adore you
Oh baby, come and kiss me, don't you miss me my little missie
Don't fear I can keep you real close, stay here I can take you to a show
And we'll dance all night, to the Frank Sinatra song
All the time in the morning watch the sun
But you know you were someone else
When he was just your boy, and I know you have someone else
And you always keep him around
I don't want to dream when I do it's of you
Who you are who you are
So just make up your mind won't you stay with me girl
Don't go far, don't go far
Oh why can't you see I'm the man for you
Oh why can't you see I've got plans for you
Just make up your mind, just make up your mind
Stay with me please, stay with me please
Stay with me please
