Middle East

The Middle East one day, it blew in, swept away
In comes the sunshine, story turned to strange
In walking comes a smile, I didn't know the day
She sits down beside me, perfectly arranged

Laura's gone away, I don't know just how long she'll be there
Sadly eyes of pain are bouncing in and out of nowhere

She wanders all around, will she make it on fries and coffee
Bigger words then tears, I'm afraid of what it might be

Laura's gone away, I don't know just how long she'll be there
Sadly eyes of pain are bouncing in and out of nowhere
And she's bouncing in and out of nowhere

Ain't nobody help me on the outside
Gotta make it through to the inside
And I'm talking strange

Ain't nobody help me on the outside
Gotta make it through to the inside
And I'm talking strange
Talking strange

Laura's gone away, I don't know just how long she'll be there
Sadly eyes of pain are bouncing in and out of nowhere

It's alright, she leaves it all behind
We all run for the Middle East sometimes
Little mind yeah can take us anywhere
Escape us anywhere, escape us everywhere
