MY LIFE WITH LAYLA (c) 2025 raspberry33

VERSE 1: Meeting and greeting – the memories still clear Courtship at a coffee shop on the highway Dinner where peanut shells littered the floor A stolen kiss outside her parent’s doorway

VERSE 2: She’s a late sleeper – before we lived together I was dee-jay – doing morning drive I knew she’d turn on the radio as soon as she woke That’s why I always played Layla at 9:45

CHORUS: My life with Layla – it’s been so good
More than I ever deserved
My life with Layla – I wish I could Drink from that bottle of memories Stored in my brain

VERSE 2: Fast-forward two years – and we’re suddenly married Moving to flyover country and making new friends Bar keeps and artists – and many musicians Look back and see it now, through a quite different lens

CHROUS

BRIDGE: Two characters in a cast of a million But blessed with compatability
Two commonplace people in a plebian world Loving like true nobility

INSTRUMENTAL

VERSE 3: Layla’s a love song, but also a name
Each tells a story in several volumes Passion and fashion and a tranquil coda You get what you see – not just colorful costumes

CHORUS
