Leaving Laurel
©2024
I'm leaving Laurel early in the morning,
She is finally resting in her dreams
A restless night, a hopeless plight but we are always hopeful
One day in the future she will rest peacefully

I wish I could stay here and hold her
But the long hard road is waiting
Five hundred miles another place to sing

She will be there waiting knowing how I love her
that every song I sing, she is there with me

From Fire and Rain to Peaceful Easy Feeling
Every word and every melody
Speaks to al the moments we’ve been together
Where will this road lead now?

Pull into the driveway, she’s waiting in the garden
That smile that tells me everything is fine

I’m holding Laurel, as she’s softly weeping
One more day to celebrate our lives
I have never met her, I am only dreaming
If your name is Laurel, you are in my dreams
