The Mayfield Four - Lyla lyrics

rate me

yla in bloom

Her innocence and youth stripped away

Eighteen years old

But she's lived the life a sixty-eight

The heartache of a Mother gone

And a Father she's never known

So she dreams of a better place

Scared and alone

Turning tricks and getting stoned to survive

Vegas sex queen

Living in a world that's so obscene in a dead-end life

At the end of every tragic day

She says this to herself

If I can hold on I know

When I find my wings

I'll fly away

Over the mountains

Over the pain

And I won't look back

'Cause I've gotta get away from here

I've gotta get away from here

When I find my wings

I'll fly away

Over the mountains

Over the pain

And I won't look back

'Cause I've gotta get away from here

I've gotta get away from here

I'll find my wings

I'll fly away

Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, I won't look back

I've gotta get away from here

I've gotta get away from here
