laura's away   she walked out the door   laura don't live here anymore   and you ask me why   I'm wasting my time   over a girl no longer mine      my world is falling down around me   and she will never know   that I just can't forget her      laura's away   and I realize   it's crazy to see her in your eyes   I'm feeling lost   like I'm going insane   I don't want to drown you in my pain      tonight I want to tear the walls down   forget about my past   but my heart keeps beating faster      'cause baby, when we make love, oh   sometimes I feel I fake love, oh no   I know it's a mistake, but in your place   I can see laura here   I see her face...      laura's away   she locked up the key   laura's no longer part of me   even though I keep asking why   I can't believe she said goodbye      when I think about her moving slowly   in another sweet embrace   there's no way I can replace her      'cause baby, when we make love, oh   sometimes I feel I fake love, oh no   I know it's a mistake, but in your place   I can see laura here   I see her face...      why is it so difficult   to be what we feel deep down inside us?   I believe it's logical   but although I try to forget her   she's here...      I don't want you to be the other woman   just a kick or a special friend   but it's hard not to pretend, now      'cause baby, when we make love, oh   it's never quite the same love, oh no   her perfume lingers on, and now it's clear   I'm so sorry, but I know that laura was here      oh baby, when we make love...
