Layla

Down a field, a scent of wind

And pain follows me like a shadow

Are you sighing after me somewhere?

Where are you hidden from me?

Place rosemary behind your ear

And a flower from an old fountain

Layla, could you love another?

Dove, my dove

Bring her tears instead of a song

If they ask your hand in marriage tomorrow

Know that I won't be there

Sorrows are easily forgiven

But only love never is

Could you love another?

Dove, my dove

Bring her tears instead of a song

I'm leaving, as if guilty

For loving who I'm not allowed

Dove, my dove

Bring her tears instead of a song

I'm leaving, as if guilty

For loving you who I'm not allowed

For loving you

Layla
