Lay Your Body Down Lyrics - Poison's Greatest Hits: 1986-1996 - Poison

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 some place 

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 

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 

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 

Ooh 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 

Lay your love, lay it down on me 

Down on me
