Think Of Laura

The song remembers Laura with affection and grief. The speaker describes her as someone whose smile could brighten an ordinary day and whose friendship mattered deeply. The mood moves between sadness about her sudden, early death and an effort to celebrate the happiness she brought. The repeated advice to laugh rather than cry suggests that remembering her should include joy, not only mourning.

Several images express how her presence continues. Her eyes seem to see past “the lies” and recognize what the heart is saying, suggesting warmth and emotional understanding. Saying that Laura is “here” in everyday life does not necessarily mean she is physically present; it can mean that memories of her remain part of the people who loved her. The image of feeling her while singing connects remembrance to music and shared emotion.

The song’s insistence that Laura would want people to laugh offers comfort, but it does not erase their tears: the lyric acknowledges both loss and continuing attachment. When the speaker asks where Laura is now and then says, “I think you’re here,” this may express a spiritual belief, a feeling of closeness through memory, or simply a way of coping. The lyrics leave that meaning open, while making clear that Laura’s influence persists.
