[Verse 1]
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, 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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
As for me I've lied to, denied to fight 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 for 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
[Chorus]
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, yeah-yeah
[Bridge]
Before you was mine, I was so lonely
Ain't it a shame? Your heart must feel pain
Before you get back on your feet again
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
So, let's draw the blinds, forget wasted time
And let them old demons die
Take ahold of my hand, then you'd understand
Why love's worth one more try
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
Lay your love, lay it down, down on me
Down on me
