Laila Lyrics by Evie Irie

2024

[Verse 1]
We danced in New York subways
Going someplace we don't know
Maxed out our credit cards
In taxi cars, just to get home
Tattoos in Malibu
I miss breaking rules with you, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
365 since I say goodbye to you, ooh
Nothing’s on my mind on the lonely nights
But you, ooh
[Chorus]
So, I wrote a song for every single day we've been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila
So, I'll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bittersweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
Ten thousand miles of water
They say the heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila
[Verse 2]
We’d lose our voices to Piano Man at 2am
Walking the interstate, we never had much of a plan
That summer mid July
Wish I'd have known how life would change (Oh oh, ah ah)
[Pre-Chorus]
365, feels like wasted time
Without you, ooh
When I'm back, just know
That I won't let go of you, ooh
[Chorus]
I wrote a song for every single day we've been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila
So, I'll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bittersweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
Ten thousand miles of water
They say your heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila
[Bridge]
Make a wish on your birthday, Laila
I'll make a wish on your birthday, Laila
Make a wish on your birthday, Laila
I'll make a wish on your birthday
[Chorus]
I wrote a song for every single day we’ve been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila
I’ll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bittersweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
Ten thousand miles of water
They say your heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila
