SONG LYRICS

Lay Me Down

by Sam Smith

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

Deny this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside

These tears, they tell their own story

[Pre-Chorus]

Told me not to cry when you were gone

But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong

[Chorus]

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you?

And make sure you're alright

I'll take care of you

I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

Told me not to cry when you were gone

But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong

[Chorus]

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you?

And make sure you're alright

I'll take care of you

I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight

[Outro]

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
