You were only 17
Looking at your window screen
Sweetest girl I've ever seen
Up from a project dream
You were on the second floor
I was right across from yours
Two different sides of war
Kinda like a west side story, now
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm giving up any day now
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby I know what to say now, but I want you any way
But I want you anyway!
But I want you anyway!
Now we've turned 23
You moved across town from me
Our friends and family wouldn't let us be happy
I hear your married now, hear it ain't working out
But they can't shut us down
Leyla just tell me how and I'll be there
You are a goddess I want you to know (oh, oh, oh)
I'll never forget you
I'll never let go, I'll be coming to get yeah!
Leyla, I'm in love with you Leyla
I'm giving up any day now
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now, but I want you any way
But I want you anyway
But I want you anyway
You are a goddess I want you to know (oh, oh, oh)
I'll never forget you
I'll never let go, I'll be coming to get yeah
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm giving up any day now
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now, but I want you any way
But I want you anyway
But I want you anyway
Leyla, I am in love with you Leyla
I'm giving up any day now
So bust that window and come with me
Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll break out
Baby, I know what to say now, but I want you any way
