Lay your body down

I've spent my life waiting

For that famous final scene

I believe you know the one

When she falls in love with me

As for you, you've been fakin' your smile

Fillin' your time

on small talk

And cheap wine

Knowing in your heart there was someplace

That you'd rather be

So right or wrong,

I wrote you this song

To tell you how I feel

Don't put up no fight

You just turn off the lights

Walk over here to me

And lay your body down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah

Oh, let your tears fall down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah

As for me I've lied to, denied to

fought with, and tried to

apologize for all my ways

To all the women who were fool enough to fall

in love with me

You played your role

like a movie

Got your lines of who is,

who was, who would be

Somehow you lost track

While real love slipped away, yeah

So for tonight, just turn off the lights

And let those real feelings show

There's no wrong or right

but until you try

you're never gonna know

And lay your body down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah

Oh, let your tears fall down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah

Before you was mine

I was so lonely

Ain't it a shame

Your heart must feel pain

before you can get back on your feet again

So let's draw the blinds

Forget wasted time

And let them old demons die

Take a hold of my hand

Then you'd understand

Why love's worth one more try

And lay your body down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah

Oh, let your tears fall down on me

Down on me, tonight, oh yeah
