Lyrics:
Hey Laura it's me
Sorry but I had to rang your doorbell so late
But there's something bothering me
I really am sorry but it just couldn't wait
Is there someone else instead of me
Go ahead and lie to me and make me believe
You're not in love with him and this fool will see
That the rivers of your love flow uphill to me
Hey Laura it's me
Sorry but I had to ring your doorbell so late
Well there's something bothering me all night long
It just couldn't wait
With a healthy dose of make-believe
Go ahead and lie to me and make me believe
That you're in love with me, this fool will see
That the rivers of your love flow uphill to me
Hey Laura
Hey Laura it's me
Sorry but I had to ring your doorbell so late
Well there's something bothering me
All night long it just couldn't wait
With a healthy dose of make-believe
Go ahead and lie to me and make me believe
That you're in love with me this foul can see
That the rivers of your love flow uphill to me
Hey Laura it's me
Hey Laura it's me
Hey Laura it's me

Dear Gregory.....thank you so much for your work.....I'm a 54 year old guy sitting here in tropical Northern Australia...in my back yard...having a quiet bourbon...and your music which I just discovered brought a tear of joy to my eye....more power to you man!

That opening phrase "Hey Laura it's me ......sorry but I had to rang your doorbell so late" is so beautifully sweet and measured with so many gorgeous rich tones - just beautiful - a great intro to great song from a great singer!

[@EricG-bv2ui]

+Michael Ohajuru thanks for not leaving anything for me to add :)

[@1964deano]

yes my thoughts

[@maggieb9263]

Exactly. Singers today have no idea about tone and phrasing. It brings life to the song.

[@TheBluesjumper]

Tone, timing, phrasing and a great lyric

[@lindieclemons]

Thanks for your comment. Refreshing when someone comments appropriately. I was recently introduced to this music. He is great. He was in our town not too long ago but I didn't know anything about him and overlooked that concert. Sure hope that he comes back soon. I'll be there.

[@rmr3528]

His voice is like being wrapped in a warm fleece blanket......it is like a kiss on the forehead.....like a big strong hug......a benediction.

Well Nat King Cole was his biggest influence/inspiration but I am sure you were aware of that - his last album was a tribute to Nat King Cole. :)

[@blackhairedgoon8218]

You'll love his latest album then, a tribute to Nat King Cole, covering some of his songs like Mona Lisa and Smile - personally I prefer Gregory's slower, more deliberate vocal style.

[@doreant7906]

Check his song that Sting sang years ago, called its probably me.

In an era of manufactured tripe this song reminds us that if you are patient and keep looking there are still incredible songs out in the music world. This is a modern classic. Well done Gregory and thank you for your gift to us.

[@mrcoolieleee]

Wow, wow, wow! Gregory Porter! Your talent is endless. When I saw your version of BRING IT ON HOME TO ME at new years with Rag and Bone Man, I was speechless. That to me is a child hood song. It was played at family functions whist living in Jamaica. When I moved to London I worked in Broadcast company. Little did I know you came into see JAZZ FM and we were greeted in the lift. I did not know of your talent then. Please keep on creating great music! You have a talent that MUST be shared. Continue doing what you do best. NEVER change. Thank you!
