The Mayfield Four - Lyla lyrics

Lyla in bloom Her innocence and youth stripped away Eighteen years old But she's lived the life of sixty-eight The heartache of a mother gone And father she's never known So she dreams of a better place Scared and alone Turning tricks and getting stoned to survive Vegas s** queen Living in a world that's so obscene in a dead end life At the end of every tragic day she says this to herself If I can hold on I know When I find my wings I'll fly away Over the mountains Over the pain And I won't look back Cause I've gotta get away from here I've gotta get away from here
