(**Note: This is inspired by Robert's song. I thought it'd be fun to try to write a little song of my own. Be charitable, I put the best thirty minutes of my life into this! Heehee...)
I was sittin’ on a bar stool in a honky-tonk saloon,
With my hand wrapped ‘round a tall, cold mug of brew,
When this angel of the night, came and sat down on my right,
And she asked me, “Can I sit down here with you?”
(refrain)
Oh, please, lady Laura, will you smile at me again,
Will you tell me everything will be okay?
As the demons try to take me, can you promise not to forsake me,
Is there something I can do to make you stay?
As we wiled away the hours telling tales of lovers past,
And how they never seemed to hang around,
She looked me in the eye and said, “Nothing ever lasts,
Just be happy with the fortune you have found.”
(refrain)
Oh, please, lady Laura, will you smile at me again,
Will you tell me everything will be okay?
As the demons try to take me, can you promise not to forsake me,
Is there something I can do to make you stay?
We whirled around the dance floor, never stopping to lament,
As the hours which flew like seconds soon were gone,
I was raptured by her perfume when the words “Last Call” were sent,
So I asked her if she’d stay with me ‘til dawn.
(refrain)
Oh, please, lady Laura, will you smile at me again,
Will you tell me everything will be okay?
As the demons try to take me, can you promise not to forsake me,
Is there something I can do to make you stay?
The days then passed like hours, as I showered her with flowers,
We made love in every way from dusk ‘til dawn,
I took good care of my honey, until I ran out of money,
And when I woke up my darlin’ girl was gone.
(refrain)
Oh, please, lady Laura, will you come back one more time,
Will you hear my humble words, oh, pretty please?
As I ask my boss to cover, ‘cuz I was set up by my lover,
Will you bring me back my wallet and my keys?
