I can hear the ocean pushing t the bay   If I close my eyes then maybe it'll go away   Everywhere ther'e sunlight and   Children play for time thought I heard a sign then   I realised it was mine      The sky's a perfect blue again   But if you look it's hard to tell   If it's paradise or hell      But now I know, laura   Summer is a lonely place   Oh, laura   I wish I could see your face      When a million birds sing how can I be sad   It's s if they know I lost the only chance I had      The sky's a perfect blue again   But it might as well be grey   'cause I let you walk away      But now I know, laura   Summer is a lonely place   Oh, laura   I wish I could see your face   Oh, laura   I kissed you in the rain   Oh, laura   How I wish I was home again      In winter I was warmer   Don't make me wait here alone   The sun has cast it's shadow   And it chills me to the bone      Oh, laura   How I wish I was coming home      The sky's a perfect blue again   But it might as well be grey   'cause I let you walk away      But now I know, laura   Summer is a lonely place   Oh, laura   I wish I could see your face   Oh, laura   I kissed you in the rain   Oh, laura   How I wish I was home again
