 LAY ME DOWN 

 Lay me, Lay-lay lay me
Lay-lay lay me
Lay-lay lay me
L-l-l-l-l-l-lay me, lay-lay lay me
Lay-lay lay me
Lay-lay, lay me down

 I've been weak, things get tough
Sometimes my knees can barely hold me up
I'm no fool, but it's said
You gotta walk a mile til you're outta my head

Going in, tasty luck
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up 
Get your life, give a damn
You gotta make a move to show me where we can stand

 Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see 
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
(Come on)

 Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see 
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
(Come on)

 Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need
Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need

(music interlude)
(Nile riff)

 I got the top, it’ll be alright, yeah, I got the time that you need (yeah)

 We all bleed, bleed the same
If you get the picture, leave it out of the frame,
In the now, take a chance
Make a mess, and don't forget that life is a dance, yeah

Going in, tasty luck
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up 
Get your life, give a damn
You gotta make a move to show me where we can stand

 Lay me down in darkness
tell me what you see
love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need (come on)

 Lay me down in darkness (yeah)
tell me what you see
love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need

(Nile riff)

 Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need (yeah)
Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need
Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need
Show me I’m the one tell me I’m the one that you need 

Yeah, show me baby baby tell me that you need it, I got the top, it'll be alright, yeah
 I got the time that you need.  Come on!

(music interlude)

 la-la-lay me
la-la-lay me down
la-la- lay me
la-la-lay me down
la-la- lay me
la-la-lay me down
la-la-lay me
la-la-lay me down and

Lay me down in darkness
