[Verse 1]

What'll you do when you get lonely

And nobody's waiting by your side?

You've been runnin' and hidin' 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?

[Verse 2]

I tried to give you consolation

When your old man had let you down

Like a fool, I fell in love with you

It 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?

[Verse 3]

So 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

[Chorus]

Layla

You've got me on my knees

Layla

I'm begging, darling, please

Layla

Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Layla, you've got me on my knees

Layla

I'm begging, darling, please

Layla

Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
