Jimmy Nail - Laura Lyrics

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 its 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
