Last night at the dance I met Laurie,

So lovely and warm, an angel of a girl.

Last night I fell in love with Laurie -

Strange things happen in this world.


As I walked her home,

She said it was her birthday.

I pulled her close and said

"Will I see you anymore?"

Then suddenly she asked for my sweater

And said that she was very, very cold.


I kissed her goodnight

At her door and started home,

Then thought about my sweater

And went right back instead.

I knocked at her door and a man appeared.

I told why I'd come, then he said:


"You're wrong, son.

You weren't with my daughter.

How can you be so cruel

To come to me this way?

My Laurie left this world on her birthday -

She died a year ago today."


A strange force drew me to the graveyard.

I stood in the dark,

I saw the shadows wave,

And then I looked and saw my sweater

Lyin' there upon her grave.


Strange things happen in this world
