Love And Laughter Lyrics - Tim O'brien

Across a county line 

In a cheap motel 

Lyin' next to her 

There's a new day wakin' 

Never felt this sure 

Of anything before 

No question in his mind 

About the chance he's takin' 

Don't know where they're goin' 

But they know just what they're after 

In each other's arms they always 

Seem to find their way to love and laughter 

First mornin' light 

On her new wedding band 

She's talkin' on the phone 

Sayin', "Momma I'll miss you" 

They can't help, but laugh 

As momma starts to shout 

She covers up the phone 

And reaches to kiss him 

Momma can't remember how it feels 

When you can live on love and laughter 

Love and laughter 

He's struttin' like a hero 

She looks just like a dream 

There's nothin' in their suitcase 

But those two have everything they need 

Love and laughter, love and laughter 

She takes a highway map 

Covers up her eyes 

Points to a little town 

And says, "Let's go there" 

Anywhere at all 

Will be their honeymoon 

Under big city lights 

Or in the middle of nowhere 

Don't know where they're goin' 

But they know just what they're after 

In each other's arms they always 

Seem to find their way to love and laughter 

Love and laughter 

Love and laughter
