Nek Laura Is Away

Laura is away, she walked out the door,

no one to 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

but she will never know

that I just can't forget her.

 

Laura is away and I realise

it's crazy to see her in your eyes.

I'm feeling lost, like I'm going insane

but 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, whoa oh,

sometimes I feel like I fake love, oh, no.

I know it's a mistake but in your place

I can see Laura here, I see her face, see her face!

 

Laura is away, she locked out with key.

Laura is 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, whoa oh,

sometimes I feel like I fake love, oh, no.

I know it's a mistake but in your place

I can see Laura here, I see her face, 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 is 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, whoa 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 is here, here.

 

Oh baby, when we make love, whoa oh,

don't wanna go and break love, oh no.

Her perfume lingers on and now it's clear.

I'm so sorry but I know that Laura is here, Laura is here.
