Additional quotes by Laura Nyro

Morning came to the window of the street.

So he swears he'll mever marry
Says that cuddles are a curse
Just tell him plain
You're on the next train
If love don't get you first

My troubles are many They're deep as a well I swear there ain't no Heaven And I pray there ain't no hell But I'll never know by living
only my dying will tell. And when I die and when I'm gone There'll be, one child born And a world to carry on, to carry on.
