Clementine was born not to me Born not to love like you And me No one's ever seen her cry But hidden in her eyes There's a whole wide sea Clementine walks around at night Talks the moonlight into sleep Wakes up slowly, taking her time She has no one to meet No one wonders where she's from If she's ever had someone of her own She is just a part of a scene A part of you and me Clementine reads all day long Carries the world of someone unknown Finds her castle, sits on her throne Then she's not alone No one wonders where she's from If she's ever had someone of her own She is just a part of a scene A part of you and me No one wonders where she's from If she's ever had someone of her own She is just a part of a scene A part of you and me Clementine was born not to me
