Leyla Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You were only 17
Looking at your window screen
Sweetest girl I've ever seen
Straight up from a project dream
You were on the second floor
I was right across from yours
Two different sides of war
Kinda like a west side story, now

[Chorus]
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm comin' up any day now (Day now)
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now
But I want you anyway

[Hook]
(But I want you anyway)
(But I want you anyway)

[Verse 2]
Now we've turned 23
You moved across town from me
Our friends and family
Wouldn't let us be happy
I hear your married now
Hear it ain't working out
But they can't shut us down
Leyla, just tell me how and I'll be there

[Pre-Chorus]
You are a goddess I want you to know (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I'll never forget you, I'll never let go
Yeah, I'll be coming to get ya

[Chorus] Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm comin' up any day now (Day now)
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now
But I want you anyway

[Hook]
(But I want you anyway)
(But I want you anyway)

[Pre-Chorus]
You are a goddess I want you to know (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I'll never forget you, I'll never let go
Yeah, I'll be coming to get ya

[Chorus]
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm comin' up any day now (Day now)
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now
But I want you anyway

[Hook]
(But I want you anyway)
(But I want you anyway)

[Chorus]
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm comin' up any day now (Day now)
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now
But I want you anyway
