Paroles
They'd all call her freckles when summer was coming around
All the kids that were running and laughing and sun turned to brown
And I'd find her crying and hurt by the words that they said
And follow her home just trying to be a friend
And I'd say freckles, you're pretty, there's a rainbow on your face
Do you wanna know a secret, none of them could take your place
Cause you're different and special, and she'd hold my hand and sigh
And say I always wanna see me through your eyes
But summers just turn into winters and then into years
And slowly the smile of a woman replaced all her tears
Somehow I knew in a while that my friend would be gone
As I watched a sad ugly duckling turn into a swan
And I said freckles, you're special, and she'd hold my hand and sigh
And say I always wanna see me through your eyes
But soon she was flying, dancing, laughing and proud
And I took my place a face alone in a crowd
Knowing her lovers can't see past her smooth golden skin
And that's how I know that freckles will come back again
And I'll say freckles, I love you, there's a rainbow on your face
Cause she'll be smiling through her
Teardrops as she runs to my embrace
Freckles, you're special, and she'll take my hand and sigh
And say I only wanna see me through your eyes
And I'll say freckles, I love you, there's a rainbow on your face
Cause she'll be smiling through her
Teardrops as she runs to my embrace
Freckles, you're special, and she'll take my hand and sigh
And say I only wanna see me through your eyes
