There Was No Way
There was no way to kiss her like a good boy. You could start out that way, but you always ended up on the other side of the tracks.

Hey Laura
Hey Laura, it's me
Sorry but i had to ring your doorbell so late
But there's somethin' botherin' me
I really am sorry but it just couldn't wait
Is there someone else instead of me
Go ahead and lie to me
Hey Laura
