[Intro]
(Hey Laura, Laura)
(Hey Laura, Laura)

[Verse 1]
Every once in a while, I'd see her smile
And she'd turn my day around
A girl with those eyes could stare through the lies
And see what your heart was saying

[Chorus]
Think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
Hey, yeah, when you think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way

[Verse 2]
A friend of a friend, a friend 'til the end
That's the kind of girl she was
Taken away so young
Taken away without a warning

[Chorus]
Think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
Hey, yeah, when you think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
[Verse 3]
I know you, and you're here
In every day we live
I know her and well, she's here
I can feel her when I sing

[Bridge]
Hey Laura, (Laura) where are you now?
Are you far away from here?
I don't think so
I think you're here taking our tears away

[Chorus]
Think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
Hey, yeah, when you think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
Hey, yeah, well, I know she'd want it that way (Want it that way)
Hey, Laura (Laura) hey, Laura
I know she'd want it that way (Want it that way)
Hey, Laura (Laura)
Hey, Laura, I know you want it that way (Hey, Laura)
