I'm Gonna Laugh You Out Of My Life
Johnny Mathis · Other Songs - Johnny Mathis
Laugh, and forget this affair
Guess I was foolish
To care
So I'm gonna dance you right out of my dreams
Try to be carefree and gay
I guess I'll learn to play
The part
Cause when our friends begin that
Heartless rumor
I know I'll really need my
Sense of humor
I'm gonna laugh you right out of my life
Make it a beautiful joke
No one will know you broke
My heart
But if I find you and I
Really meant that last goodbye
Then I'm gonna laugh so hard
I'll cry
But if I find you and I
Really meant that last goodbye
Then I'm gonna laugh so hard
I'll cry
