Lauren, I Said Lyrics

“Lauren,” I said*
“I hope that you have it inside you
To take this
To take it to the natural end.”
“Oh, Lauren,” I said,
“I hope that you know how to do this
To bring us, to bring us to the natural end.”
“It might be hard
But I saw your face
And I know you're right.”

“Oh, Lauren,” I said.
“Lauren,” I said
“You only have one heart inside you
To keep you, to keep you from an unnatural end.”
My doe, you hover on the edge
Like someone afraid of getting caught
Or pausing unsure if the red light is coming
I know that you are right
Lauren, I hope you are sure.
