I know
I know what's on your mind

And I know it gets tough sometimes.
But you can give it one more try to find a reason why

You should pick it up and try it again.
'Cause it's all right - I think we're gonna make it.
I think it might just work out this time.I

It's all right - I think we're gonna make it
I think it might work out fine this time.
It's all right - I think we're gonna make
I think it might just work out

'Cause it's not too late for that - too late for me.
I know I've been hurt before

And I know I really shouldn't give any more.
But this time
this time things seem just a little different.
And when I look in your eyes
you know I can see that it's true.
And I hear you say:
It's all right - I think we're gonna make it. . . .
Just when you feel helpless
nothing lefl to say.
Love will find us. The past behind us - then we're on our way.
Time and time again I see people so unsure like me

We all know it gets hard sometimes. You can give it one more try

Find another reason why you should pick it up

You should kick it up and try it again.
'Cause it's all right - I think we're gonna make it.
'Cause it's all right - I think we're gonna make it.

Well I read it in town in the melancholy news
The front page story is our love is through
The hand of time is cold -- I can't stand to hear the truth
Somehow I won't believe it 'til I've heard it from you

But there's no time for talk
And there's no place for tears
There's no reason to wonder after all of these years
Sure we had some good times
And so who's to blame
It's so hard to tell when you both feel the pain


After the years have come and gone
The struggle to forget you will have just begun
We had our ups and downs but one thing's for sure
No one will ever love you more

Every once in a while
I'd see her smile
And she'd turn my day around
A girl with those eyes
Could stare through the lies
And see what your heart was saying

Think of Laura but laugh don't dry
I know she'd want it that way
When you think of Laura laugh don't cry
I know she'd want it that way

A friend of a friend
A friend till the end
That's the kind of girl she was
Taken away so young
Taken away without a warning

I know you and you're here
In everyday we live
I know her and she's here
I can feel her when I sing

Hey Laura, where are you now
are you far away from here
I don't think so
I think you're here
Taking our tears away
