Layla是英国音乐人及作曲人EricClapton的歌曲。歌名Layla原意是夜晚,指美丽却无法得到的女人。现实中讲的是甲壳虫乐队吉他手GeorgeHarrison和现今在世的最伟大的吉他音乐家EricClapton的妻子Pattieboyd。
先后嫁给了George和Eric,EricClapton为她写了这首摇滚史上最抒情的曲子,以此表达对PATTIE的爱慕之情,最后PATTIE离开了Harrison,嫁给了Clapton,1979年离婚,至今一人,成为了一名摄影家。
随后,Eric在打击乐手JimGordon的协助下,把自己的感受写成了《Layla》。他希望通过这首歌,能够使Boyd感受到自己的心情,以说服她同他走到一起。Eric和自己的乐队DerekandtheDominos在1970年在录音室中录制了这首歌并收录在专辑《LaylaandOtherAssortedLoveSongs》中于同年发表,专辑副标题《Iamyours》同样出自Nizami那本12世纪所作的诗集。
专辑刚一发行,Eric便向Boyd唱这首歌,并送她了那本诗集,向她表白。她们相处了一段时间,很快Boyd又与他分手并拒绝离开自己的丈夫。几年后,Eric的坚持最终使两人在几年后结婚。不幸的是,两人又在1989年离婚。尽管两人的浪漫没有成为永远,EricClapton的《Layla》一直流传至今,并被认为最经典的曲目。
What will you do when you get lonely
No one is waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging darlin' please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind?
Tried to give you consolation
Your old man let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging darlin' please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind?
Make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
Or tell me all my love's in vain
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging darlin' please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind?
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging darlin' please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind?
