Laura(What s He Got That I Ain t Got?)Frankie Laine.
#35 in 1967.
#1.
Laura, hold these hands and count my fingers.
Laura, touch these lips you once desired.
Lay your head upon my chest, hear my heartbeat,
Gently run your fingers through my hair.
#2.
Touch these ears that listened to your wishes.
Most of them fulfilled, and that s a lot.
Let your soft gentle hands caress my body.
And then tell me what he s got that I ain t got.
CHORUS:
Tell me what he s got that I can t give you.
It must be something I was born without.
You took an awful chance to be with another man,
So, tell me what he s got that I ain t got.
#3.
Laura, see these walls that I built for you.
Laura, see this carpet that I laid.
See those fancy curtains on the windows.
Touch those satin pillows on your bed.
#4.
Laura, count the dresses in your closet.
Note the name upon the checkbook in your bag.
And if there s time before I pull this trigger,
then tell me what he s got that I ain t got.
CHORUS:
Tell me what he s got that I can t give you.
It must be something I was born without.
You took an awful chance to be with another man,
So, tell me what he s got that I ain t got.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
