Laura don't you leave me Though you love another I heard you calling out to him In your sleep so restless The body knows what it wants With certainty and confidence John I cannot stay here For this has no meaning I've grown fond of another My mind and heart conceding The body knows what it wants With certainty and confidence Laura will he care for you As honestly as I do? And if your heart a changeling Maybe I could change too I've grown weary of you The late nights and the drink too Your foolish sense of duty It means nothing to me The body knows what it wants With certainty and confidence Be wise with your decision For there is no returning And if you leave me Laura There will be no second chances I've thought and I've decided The choice it was made easy My lover is a fair man Tonight I will leave with him The body knows what it wants With certainty and confidence
