Lila
Lila-Sara Laine
Like an eagle on the lookout
She hunts for love in every face
But with each who tries to love her, comes another
Dream to fade
Well, the daddy of her babies
He'd give her anything
But he could never touch her soul
Or make it sing
Lila, it's not what you had in mind
Lila, you were hopin' for a world divine
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
At the bar slingin' beer backs
Blanco tequila and lime
She checks her compact mirror
To fix her lipstick lines
How I love to listen to her stories
From a bygone time
All the champagne and velvet
And rendez-vous sublime
No second chance
She'd give to
Lonely lovers
To taste her lips
Beneath a starry sky
She draws her hand from her pocket
Turns to wave goodbye
She'll make her own way back
In the wanin' light
To the bitty girls, with the golden curls
And sleepy eyes
Who cry for Lila
To sing them lullabies
Lila, it's not what you had in mind
(not what you'd think you'd find)
Lila, you were hopin' for a world divine
(hopin' for a world divine)
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
Like an eagle on the lookout
She hunts for love in every face
But with each who tries to love her, comes another
Dream to fade
Well, the daddy of her babies
He'd give her anything
But he could never touch her soul
Or make it sing
Lila, it's not what you had in mind
Lila, you were hopin' for a world divine
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
At the bar slingin' beer backs
Blanco tequila and lime
She checks her compact mirror
To fix her lipstick lines
How I love to listen to her stories
From a bygone time
All the champagne and velvet
And rendez-vous sublime
No second chance
She'd give to
Lonely lovers
To taste her lips
Beneath a starry sky
She draws her hand from her pocket
Turns to wave goodbye
She'll make her own way back
In the wanin' light
To the bitty girls, with the golden curls
And sleepy eyes
Who cry for Lila
To sing them lullabies
Lila, it's not what you had in mind
(not what you'd think you'd find)
Lila, you were hopin' for a world divine
(hopin' for a world divine)
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
Uh oh Lila, Lila Lila
