[Pre-Chorus]
Well, sometimes, I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you do
In my head, I paint a picture

[Chorus]
Since I've come home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over?
Stop makin' a fool, out of me, yeah
Why don't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie, yeah
Valerie, Valerie

[Verse 1]
Did you have to go to jail?
Put your house on up for sale?
Did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didn't catch a tеn
Hope you'll find the right man who fix it for ya

[Verse 2]
Now are you shopping anywhеre?
Change the colour of your hair?
Yeah, are you busy?
And did you have to pay that fine
That you was dodgin' all the time?
Are you still dizzy?
[Chorus]
Since I've come home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over?
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie, yeah
Valerie, Valerie

[Pre-Chorus]
Well sometimes, I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you do
And in my head, I paint a picture

[Chorus]
Since I've come home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over?
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Oh, why don't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie, yeah
Valerie, Valerie, woah, woah
Valerie, yeah, yeah
Valerie, yeah
Valerie, Valerie
Why don't you come on over, Valerie?
