Laila

We danced in New York subways, going someplace we don't know
Maxed out our credit cards in taxi cars just to get home
Tattoos in Malibu, I'll miss breaking rules with you
Ooh

Three-six-five since I say goodbye to you
Ooh
Nothing's on my mind on the lonely nights but you
Ooh

So
I wrote a song for every single day we've been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila

So
I'll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bitter-sweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
10,000 miles of water, they say the heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila

We'd lose our voices to "Piano Man" at 2 AM
Walking the interstate, we never had much of a plan
That summer, mid-July, wish I'd of known
How life would change, oh, oh (ah)

Three-six-five, feels like wasted time without you
Ooh
When I'm back, just know that I won't let go of you
Ooh

I wrote a song for every single day we've been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila

So
I'll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bitter-sweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
10,000 miles of water, they say your heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila

Make a wish on your birthday, Laila
I'll make a wish on your birthday, Laila
Make a wish on your birthday, Laila
I'll make a wish on your birthday

I wrote a song for every single day we've been apart
But none of them articulate how fucking good you are
Oh, Laila, Laila

I'll bake a cake for you with 18 candles, bitter-sweet
And when you blow them out, I hope you wish the same as me
10,000 miles of water, they say your heart grows fonder
Oh, Laila, Laila
