Before you walk out that door,
 Just give me that one more chance,
 And hear me out

 She was only 16 years old
 When I first met her
 In the lobby of a compact hotel
 I got to know her

 Thinking back to the days in my life
 My heart breaks down
 It seems like just yesterday (yesterday)

 Leilani, are you walking out the door?
 Are you walking out my life?
 Baby, are you walking out the door?
 You're the light of my life

 You're in my life--to be my wife
 Baby please (baby), can't you see? (can't you see?)

 You kept your love above ground
 So I realized
 This love can not go unfound
 Baby, I can't keep away

 Leilani, are you walking out the door?
 Are you walking out my life?
 Baby, are you walking out the door?
 You're the light of my life

 You're in my life--to be my wife
 Baby please (baby), can't you see? (can't you see?)

 Heaven look you head on your face
 Gave me a reason--I had to cooperate
 But yet, and still I have faced (so baby tell me)
 This flame is burning so fast (we have no time)
 Oh baby, I want this to last
 The pleasure is mine--I'm pleading baby

 Leilani, are you leaving me now?
 (Don't leave me, baby)
 Oh baby, are you walking out the door?
 Leilani, are you going away?
 Are you leaving out my life?

 You're in my life--to be my wife
 Baby please (baby), can't you see? (can't you see?)

 You're in my life--to be my wife
 Baby please (baby), can't you see? (can't you see?)

 Baby Girl,
 Go on here and walk out that door
 But, I want you to always remember
 That I'll always love you
 Remember the times we spent together, girl
 The times we had fun,
 And the times we made love
 Always remember those things,
 And cherish them with all your heart
 'Cause you know
 I will always be there for you, baby
 I want you to know that
 I'll always be there
 Take care,
 'Cause you know I love you
 I really do
