Track Title: Laura Album Title: Bird: The Original Recordings of Charlie Parker Prime Artist: Charlie Parker Drums: Buddy Rich Written by: David Raskin Written by: Johnny Mercer Lyrics: Laura is the face in the misty lights Footsteps that you hear down the hall The (love) that floats on a summer night That you can never quite recall And you see Laura on a train that is passing through Those eyes how familiar they seem She gave your very first kiss to you That was Laura but she's only a dream She gave your very first kiss to you That was Laura But she's only a dream |
