Laurie

Once I saw the most beautiful girl Sitting next to me I asked her what was her name She said it was 'Laurie' She worked at the store and I opened that door Just to see her face She always made me feel at home I never felt out of place But she already had a boyfriend An undertaker was he And they got married And had a little baby I became obsessed with death, my friend Certain that it would happen to me And I would be in the hands Of my dear Laurie I can't explain such love aflame I overcame victorious Filled my heart with such desire So grand and so glorious Laurie, sweet, an angel dear Is here with me today Not a person, but a memory With me will always stay. --- Laurie - Daniel Johnston
