The Oak Ridge Boys - Freckles lyrics

They'd all called her Freckles when summer was coming around All the kids that were running and laughing and some 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 her friend. And I'd say Freckles you're pretty, There's a rainbow on your face. Do you want to know a secret? None of them could take your place Cause your different and special And she'd hold my hand and sigh And say I always want to see me through your eyes. But summers just turned into winters and then into years And slowly the smile of a woman replaced all her tears, And some how 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 hold and sigh And say I always want to 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 want to 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
