Leilani Pt.2 - Hoodoo Gurus

Many years have passed since Leilani died

But his broken heart cannot be denied

He doesn’t think of other girls

He just sits and mourns for her

She was the only thing in the world he called his

Now in the world she is

Swimming by himself

He found a pretty rock

Well, suddenly he felt

That stone begin to talk

(Lei-la, lei-lei)

(La-lei-lei, la-lei-lei)

(La-lei-lei, la-lei-lei)

It was his long-lost love

That he held in his hand

The pebble’s colour was

Identical to her tan

Now she’s a rock

From a volcanic pool

Before she was hot

But now she is cool

Now she is here, now she is there

Now she’s getting carried away

Hey-ey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-ey

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

Down by the lagoon

You’ll see him with his stone

They sit beneath the moon

And then he takes her home

He kisses her goodnight (Whoa-oh)

And puts her in a shoe-box (Whoa-oh)

That’s what life is like (Whoa-oh)

When your marriage is on the rocks

Now she’s a rock

From a volcanic pool

Before she was hot

But now she is cool

Now she is here, now she is there

Now she’s getting carried away

Hey-ey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-ey-ey

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love is a red, red rock

My love

(My love) Is a red, red rock

(My love) Is a red, red rock

(My love) Is a red, red rock

My love
