lay me down

John Legend

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 I'm missing you

The night, this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside
These tears, they tell their own story

You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't want to be here
If I can't be with you tonight

I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call?
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you
Missing you like crazy

Can I lay by your side
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't want to be here
If I can't 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-ou
