Lyric Laughter
(Marshall Crenshaw)
It s almost dawn
and everything s wrong
I m wide awake and angry all night long
Chained to my rockin chair
Sometimes it s hard to bear, so hard to bear
the memory of the laughter that we used to share
I get lost on the streets
That we used to walk
Where we used to find each other in the dark
Can t find the places where we used to go
Cause they re nothing like they were before,
like they were before
They re not echoing with laughter anymore
Once in awhile
I hear a voice in my head
I start thinking about some random thing that you said
How I hate to realize
That things are how they have to be,
how they have to be
I still can t believe what happened to you and me
You were a friend like no other
I m afraid that I m gonna find
That the memory of your laughter
Will never leave my mind
It s almost dawn
And everything s wrong
As one more restless night drags on and on
Chained to my rockin chair
Till I don t know what to do,
don t know what to do
With the memory of your laughter
And the ones we knew
It will never leave my mind
...everything s wrong
I m wide awake and angry all night long
Chained to my rockin chair
As lonely as I can be, as I can be
With the memory of your laugher for company
Lonely as I can be
Memories for company
ooooh
ooooh
The memory of the laughter that we used to share
It s almost dawn
and everything s wrong
I m wide awake and angry all night long
Chained to my rockin chair
Sometimes it s hard to bear, so hard to bear
the memory of the laughter that we used to share
I get lost on the streets
That we used to walk
Where we used to find each other in the dark
Can t find the places where we used to go
Cause they re nothing like they were before,
like they were before
They re not echoing with laughter anymore
Once in awhile
I hear a voice in my head
I start thinking about some random thing that you said
How I hate to realize
That things are how they have to be,
how they have to be
I still can t believe what happened to you and me
You were a friend like no other
I m afraid that I m gonna find
That the memory of your laughter
Will never leave my mind
It s almost dawn
And everything s wrong
As one more restless night drags on and on
Chained to my rockin chair
Till I don t know what to do,
don t know what to do
With the memory of your laughter
And the ones we knew
It will never leave my mind
...everything s wrong
I m wide awake and angry all night long
Chained to my rockin chair
As lonely as I can be, as I can be
With the memory of your laugher for company
Lonely as I can be
Memories for company
ooooh
ooooh
The memory of the laughter that we used to share
