"Laura"

Copyright 1993, Tano Music

Words & Music by Tom Sperrazzo

Life was all a-cloud, another storm was due;

Then she smiled and gray skies blossomed blue;

Her sky-blue eyes, the sun in her hair

Had turned the showers

To summer flowers!

 

Ever since that day, she's turned my world on end;

Hope that it's a trend that never ends!

I'll spend each waking hour

Anticipating showing LAURA

With summer flowers

And seeing more of LAURA now.
