"Lauren" lyrics

Lauren's gonna write the great American novel
As soon as she remembers how to hold a pencil
With prose so tight you could watch the heart pulse
Lines so funny that the pages tremble

But who's gonna hear my song through the wall
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Yeah, who's gonna hear my song through the wall
And sing it right back until you come back to me
Lauren
Lauren
Lauren

When Lauren hits the chords she'll put the kind of noise out
The queer kids with cute haircuts wanna tell their moms about
Quiet kind of people do the most important shouting
And Lauren, I'll yell with you past a shadow of a doubt

But who's gonna hear my song through the wall
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Yeah, who's gonna hear my song through the wall
And sing it right back until you come back to me
Lauren
Lauren
Lauren

Well Lauren don't get better, no, she gets the best it's true
And compassion lights the way she moves and everything she do
Lauren, when your space is empty, I'm a little empty too
And so is anyone who's had the pleasure of knowing you

But who's gonna hear this song through the wall
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Yeah, who's gonna hear this song through the wall
And sing it right back until you come back to me
Lauren
Lauren
