Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She had a look in her eye that would make you melt
Made me feel better than I ever felt
But bless her heart, she couldn't stay
I begged her not to go away
[Verse 2]
She left my ex best friend out in old Tucson
Told me she was leavin' and would be rollin' on
Now the days just pass on by
Losin' her is the reason why
[Verse 3]
Leila, Leila, you're mine
We'll be flyin' high
And everything will be alright
[Verse 4]
You know, I love you, girl, more than I can say
I still think about you each and every day
My lonesome old heart still feels the same
So, Leila, won't you steal away?
[Verse 5]
Leila, Leila, you're mine
We'll be flyin' high
And everything will be alright
[Verse 6]
Leila, Leila, you're mine
We'll be flyin' high
And everything will be alright
