The Teardrop Explodes - Wilder

Like Leila Khaled Said

You can smother me with kisses
You can smother me with dreams
You can always be the mistress of my schemes

But the sad is a very special thing
It can leave you at the start
It can see you standing naked
In a jar

But another ship could find you
And now's your chance, and now's your chance
Another ship could find you
And now's your chance, and now's your chance

Just like Leila Khaled said
Oh, just like Leila Khaled said

Meeting people round the table
Trying hard to get excited for your brand new name
Bringing friends all round for dinner
Shown an empty crazed pack that said "Crystal was here"

Just like Leila Khaled said
Oh, just like Leila Khaled said

Just like Leila Khaled said

Hey, how does he do those things?
They never really get the chance
And before this we wake
We'll forget the things that drive affection
Put aside these old reflections

Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
Just like Leila Khaled said
