Lay Me Down

Yes, I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was
Right there, right next to you
And it's hard, the days just seem so dark
The moon, the stars are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin,
Where do I begin?
No words can explain the way IÕm missing you
Deny this emptiness, this hole that IÕm inside
These tears, they tell their own story

You told me not to cry when you were gone
[Regular version:] But the feelingÕs overwhelming, they're much too strong
[Acoustic version:] But the feelingÕs overwhelming, it's much too strong

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure youÕre alright?
IÕll take care of you,
And I donÕt want to be here if I canÕt be with you tonight
IÕm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call? (who's to say you won't hear me?)
This hurt that IÕve been through
IÕm missing you, missing you like crazy
You told me not to cry when you were gone
[Regular version:] But the feelingÕs overwhelming, they're much too strong
[Acoustic version:] But the feelingÕs overwhelming, it's much too strong

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure youÕre alright?
IÕll take care of you
And I donÕt wanna be here if I canÕt be with you tonight
Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
[Acoustic version ends here]
And make sure youÕre alright?
IÕll take care of you
And I donÕt wanna be here if I canÕt be with you tonight
