Leila, Leila, Leila
You’re a fine one ain't ya
Your beauty glows like moonlight on the desert in Iran
And you smell like musk and roses
When you take me in your arms
I’d never ask you to stay
But just come home once in a while
You shimmer like a forest
Full of fireflies
Your voice encapsulates me
That smooth jazz style
And you smell like musk and roses
When you take me in your arms
I’d never ask you to stay
But just come home once in a while
Planes and trains and cars
Festivals and shows
You glitter round the world and I smile because I know
You're where you’re meant to be
But Leila darling please
Just once in a little while
Come back home to me
Leila, Leila, Leila
You’re a fine one aint ya
Your beauty glows like moonlight on the desert in Iran
And you smell like musk and roses
When you take me in your arms
I’d never ask you to stay
But just come home once in a while

Is there moss growing on your gravestone
The family on Facebook tell me they clean it when they can
I kind of hope they leave the moss though
It’s comforting to know there’s something growing from your bones
miss you at all the wrong times
see you in all the wrong things
I hope wherever you are
You can listen to wham! and gipsy kings
Sometimes I hear you in my dreams
Often I see your face in mine
It feels as big as Wicklow mountains
And as deep as the lake beside
Dad, when you’re watching over
I hope you’re proud of what you see

Hey hey mumma
Not everything’s about you
When I scream fuck the world
That don’t always include you
Maybe it does sometimes
And that’s okay too
I know you raised me on your own
And I’ll always love you
But I am not in your image
That’s not what you taught me
I am strong and bold and brave
Just like you
And I am not my father
I know we’ll always miss him
Just you and me is more than enough
It always has been
Hey hey Mumma
Ooooooooo
I’m getting older and you are too
We’ve gotta run, we’ve gotta move
Hey hey Mumma
Ooooooooo
I wanna know
Wanna grow
I wanna change together
Wanna feel what you feel
What you know
Hey hey mumma

I hope that when we’re old
We’re still sitting together on a porch somewhere
Sunlight reflecting off our grey hair
And I hope
I can still hear you
Laughing
Nico Nicky Nicole
Sometimes I wake up feeling fucking old
So you kidnap me from my room
to the laundromat
it’s pretty hard to be sad
When I can’t
Stop
Laughing
Nico Nicky Nicole
Probably won’t believe us till we’re old
About this odyssey we’ve both been through
Every changing me every different you
And how we never
Stopped
Laughing
