Cover art for Lila lyrics by Bright Eyes

This song is absolutely beautiful. I cried the first time I heard it.

I think it is a lullaby in a way. I love how it's so simple. It sounds like he did lose some girl but still cares for her. Like it's a lullaby for her. Like even though they're not together he still cares for her a lot and he'll always be there for her, even to just watch her sleep.

I think it's just so beautiful. I have this thing, I don't know what it is, but like seeing someone sleeping to me is like the most beautiful and peaceful thing in the world. Sounds weird I know, but like my boyfriend, I could just watch him sleep forever and that's the most beautiful thing I can imagine. That's probably why I like this song so much :)

Bright Eyes is really good :) Conor sings very well in this song :)

Oh good! I thought i was the only person that cried the first time i heard this song. I eventually sang it to my ex when she was going through a tough time with her current boyfriend and she broke up with him to be with me soon after.
