What'll you do when you get lonely

And nobody's waiting by your side

You've been runnin' and hidin' much too long

You know it's just your foolish pride

 
Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla, I'm begging, darling please

Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

 
I tried to give you consolation

When your old man had let you down.

Like a fool, I fell in love with you

Turned my whole world upside down

 
Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla, I'm begging, darling please

Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

 
So make the best of the situation

Before I finally go insane

Please don't say we'll never find a way

And tell me all my love's in vain

 
Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla, I'm begging, darling please

Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

 
Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla, I'm begging, darling please

Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

 
Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla, I'm begging, darling please

Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
