The Laugh
Your laugh;
 Like a record player
 
 Round and round and round
 My head spins 
 At the way that when you mess up a word
 You laugh 
 
 Again and again and again
 And 
 At the way you look in that blue shirt
 That matches those eyes
 And the ocean too
 I could watch the waves all day with you
 And watch those eyes watch the waves
 
 Watch
 The way the salty waves kiss the shore
 And come back
 Every time.
 I’m sure that you could brighten anyone’s day 
 With that smile
 So bright like the stars
 I wish on shooting stars as bright as 
 That smile
 That one-day Fate will bring us together
 
 So I can hear that laugh again
 
 So I can watch those eyes watch
 
 So I can see that smile brighten
 My heart
 
 Hurts – 
 So curse fate 
 
 And curse that laugh
 
 And curse those eyes 
 
 And curse that smile
 For it hurts too much
 To see those stars slip away
 To watch those waves wander off
 To hear that record scratch – 
 
 Scratch that
 
 I fall – 
 For Fate’s tortured games
 And for 
 
 Your smile
 And for
 
 Your eyes
 And for
 
 Your laugh.
