Tanner Laws - Lauren Rae Lyrics

She's been black and blued in the name of love
But she puts her faith in God above
Likes hiking and picking wildflowers
Tries to hide her beauty in baggy flannels
Oh, but she still lights up every single room
She walks in without even trying to
And her music taste is off the charts
Her favorite place to be is the family farm
That's where she learned to drive stick shift
Spends all her money on gas and concert tickets
And I wish that I could see her smiling face
All the good she's doing in God's name
Lauren Rae
Lauren Rae, what's a guy like me to say
You took me by the heart but not the hand
Still my favorite thing about you is easily how much you make me see how I could be a better man
But it was written in the stars, I'd never hold you in my arms
Who am I to question such a thing
When the author is infallible, seems suffering's invaluable
I know we'll find another song to sing
Lauren Rae, you're a million miles away
Still you gave me hope when there was none around me
And I can't believe we prayed together
That's something I swear I'd never do unless I thought you cared about me
Still I thank the Lord at night that he put you in my life
Short lived as it was it cut me deep
Is there no one I can trust
I don't wanna turn to lust to fill the void where I know only love should be
And I know that I'm a fool
For thinking the way I do
Yeah it's stupid and illogical, crazy and improbable to think I wouldn't long for bread & water
Finding true love's all I've ever wanted
