If you have a chance to meet a girl like Laura
You must promise me you'll never let her go
Every day you have to tell her you adore her
And make sure that it shows

She might be the girl next door, maybe a neighbor
Or she might be living just across the street
Quite naive, perhaps it's just one thing about her
But still she's so unique

With her newspaper spread over her head
That's a temporary shelter in the rain

I was looking by chance through her open window
And I saw her seated silent in her chair
Sad expression on her face and with her chin low
Does she noticed I was there
 
Laura came by on her way to an audition
Said she had some really important words to share
All these little things that makes you keep on wishing
One day she would say: "Je t'aime"
 
With her newspaper spread over her head
As a temporary shelter in the rain
