Layla Lyrics


Once more the pain is thrown my way
Can't she stay away
Every single time
She's fucking with my mind
Built up all this rage
I'm trapped inside some cage
While she sits and smiles
Layla
Layla
Once more [incomprehensible] face
Why am I the one to blame
Every single time
She's screwing up my mind
A pest in a locked up cage
In your life born and aged
Why can't I stand up and just say "good bye"
Layla
Layla

Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage and fear I feel
Pain and rage
Once more pain is thrown my way
Can't she stay away
Every single time
She's fucking with my mind
Built up all this rage
Trapped inside some cage
Life's not meant this way!
Layla
Layla
Inside I'm afraid
Afraid of who I am
Can't you even feel?
You've taken who I am
I have fought to find a way
I am afraid
To feel who I am
Fuck!
Layla
Layla
That's why I cry
This lie I drown

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

John Fahey (February 28, 1939–February 22, 2001) combined American folk, blues, Indian raga, 20th century modernism and European classical into a musical gestalt he called "American Primitive", establishing a form of classical music ("concert music" as he conceptualized it) for solo steel-string acoustic guitar with the emotive and compositional complexity of kindred classical forms from Arabic, Persian, Turkic, Indic, Malian and other traditions. His efforts to elevate his instrument in this way ran in parallel to his British counterparts like Davey Graham and John Renbourn.
