Baby, Let's Swing

Dedicated with great affection.

Laura, I saw you open in LA
There's something I gotta say
Laura, you know it's really
been such a long, long time.

And you know Laura,
I knew you'd make it good someday
And you knew it anyway
Laura, I know that maybe
this is the wrong, wrong time

But Laura, where did that magic go?
It's so hard, it's so cold down here
Did you have to leave me behind?
I wish that I could make it

But how I love to shuffle
(how I love to shuffle)
Baby, let's swing
Now I love to shuffle

Ever since I heard you sing
(since I heard her sing)

Laura, I saw you in that magazine
You looked like a gypsy queen
Laura, I beat around the bush
'cause it's oh so hard

But you know Laura,
it's not the best it's ever been
I think you know what I mean, Laura
I wish you'd take a look

in your own back yard
To see that someone has seen it all
Seen you climb, seen you fall so low
If you have to leave it behind

I'll carry it on for ya,
'cause it's oh so hard.

Baby, let's swing
Now I love to shuffle
Ever since I heard you sing.
