Laurie
Bill Evans Trio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of something that never happened, yet you recall it well
You know the feeling of recognizing someone
That you've never met as far as you could tell, well
Laura is the face in the misty light
Footsteps that you hear down the hall
The laugh that floats on a summer night
And you see Laura on the train that is passing through
Those eyes, how familiar they seem
She gave your very first kiss to you
That was Laura but she's only a dream
The lyrics to Bill Evans's “Laurie” portrays a feeling of nostalgia and reminiscence of a distant memory that is not fully understood or remembered. The first stanza talks about the feeling of trying to recall something that never happened, but the memory is still clear. This signifies the idea that memories might not necessarily be real but can still have an emotional impact. The second stanza then introduces the singer's Laura, a person that seems to be ever-present in the singer's thought. Laura is described as a mirage that is never fully captured - her face is just out of reach, her footsteps are heard but not seen, her laugh fades away, and her gaze is only accessible in dreams. The last line of the song defines Laura as nothing more than a dream, a figment of the singer’s imagination, perhaps a symbol of an idealized love that could never be.
Line by Line Meaning
You know the feeling of something half remembered
You understand the sensation of recalling incomplete memories
Of something that never happened, yet you recall it well
You can describe events that didn't take place but remain vivid in your memory
You know the feeling of recognizing someone
You've experienced the emotion of identifying a person
That you've never met as far as you could tell, well
Even though you've never actually met, you're sure of this individual's identity
Laura is the face in the misty light
Laura is the visage in the hazy illumination
Footsteps that you hear down the hall
You sense footsteps echoing throughout the corridor
The laugh that floats on a summer night
You discern the sound of laughter drifting on a balmy evening
That you can never quite recall
But you can never fully remember
And you see Laura on the train that is passing through
You observe Laura aboard the railway car that's passing by
Those eyes, how familiar they seem
Her eyes feel known to you somehow
She gave your very first kiss to you
She granted your inaugural intimate kiss
That was Laura but she's only a dream
However, it was merely a phantasm of Laura

El tema dedicado a la joven que lo acompañó hasta el día de su muerte, ya casi completamente destruido por sus adicciones y enfermedades. Ella era Laurie Verchomin.
