Chorus theme)
What will you do when you get lonely
With nobody waiting by your side
You've been running and hiding much too long,
You know it's just your foolish pride.
Lay--la, you got me on my knees.
Lay--la, I'm begging darling please.
Lay--la, darling won't you ease my
worried mind.
Tried to give you consolation,
And your old man won't let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned the whole world upside down
Lay--la, you got me on my knees.
Lay--la, I'm begging darling please.
Lay--la, darling won't you ease my
worried mind.
Let's make the best of the situation
Before I fin'lly go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my loves in vain
Lay--la, you got me on my knees.
Lay--la, I'm begging darling please.
Lay--la, darling won't you ease my
worried mind.
