Laura

[Verse 1]

Well, I've been sitting on this couch

Feeling kinda bored and uninspired

Writing thinly, veiled fiction for the soul

And feeling like a liar

I've been thinking about you, Laura

And thinking about the songs that you sing

And how you sang with such conviction

I almost forgot they weren't for me

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know you're from another planet

And you're crazy as a loon

But it's too cold down here on Earth

To go up on the roof

But I'll feel a little less alone

Sitting in my room

Writing songs about you

[Chorus]

'Bout you

'Bout you

Writing songs about you

[Verse 2]

Well, I've been lying in this bed

Trying once again to find my muse

But if we're only gonna die

Or worse get middle aged

Then what's the use?

Still I remember what you said

How it'd be when you were dead and gone

And you are and here I am

Living proof that someone's world had carried on

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know you're from another planet

And you're crazy as a loon

But it's too cold down here on Earth

To go up on the roof

But I'll feel a little less alone

Lying in my room

Writing songs about you

[Outro]

'Bout you

'Bout you

Writing songs about you

'Bout you

'Bout you

Oh, you

'Bout you

Writing songs about you
