Song Lyrics Layla by Derek and The Dominos


Derek and The Dominos

What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long.
You know it's just your foolish pride.

Chorus
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.

Chorus
Layla, you've got me on my knees.
Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.

Let's 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.

Repeat Chorus 2x

Derek and The Dominos Artist Fact:

While the album received positive feedback in the press, it did not sell well, nor did it fare much better on FM radio. In fact, it was not until two years after the album’s release that its main single, “Layla,” would make it to the Top Ten on the charts of both the United Kingdom and the United States. “Layla” was inspired by Clapton’s love for Pattie Boyd Harrison, the wife of his friend, fellow musician George Harrison....Derek_and_The_Domino Bio
