Laura Laurent - Bright Eyes[00:00:02]
Laura are you still living there[00:00:26]
On your estate of sorrows [00:00:32]
You used to leave it occasionally[00:00:38]
But now you don't even bother[00:00:44]
To ride that commuter train west to Chicago[00:00:51]
To stroll through the greenery in the park past the statues[00:01:02]
How their eyes seemed to follow you like a hated addiction[00:01:14]
Their beauty carved out of absolutes that you could never claim[00:01:26]
Or even envision[00:01:32]
Laura you were the saddest song[00:01:38]
In the shape of a woman[00:01:44]
Yeah I thought you were beautiful[00:01:50]
But I wept with your movements[00:01:56]
But I hope that you're laughing now from that place on the carpet[00:02:02]
Where we shared a sleeping bag in your sister's apartment[00:02:14]
Oh how she would worry so[00:02:26]
You know I was just a stranger[00:02:32]
But she asked me to care for you yes she did[00:02:38]
And I went and betrayed her[00:02:44]
But do you know we're in high demand Laura us people who suffer[00:02:50]
Because we don't take to arguing[00:03:02]
And we're quick to surrender[00:03:07]
Well I think I would call tonight if I still had your number[00:03:38]
Your thoughts have always lain close to mine[00:03:49]
Yeah we were both skipping supper[00:03:55]
But you should never be embarrassed by your trouble with living[00:04:01]
Because it's the ones with the sorest throats Laura[00:04:13]
Who have done the most singing[00:04:19]
Everybody[00:04:23]
Lalalala[00:04:26]
