Lay You Down

Conway Twitty



There's a lot of ways of saying

What I want to say to you

There's songs and poems and promises

and dreams that might come true

But I won't talk of starry skys

or moonlight on the ground

I'll come right out and tell you

I'd just love to lay you down

(chorus)

Lay you down and softly wisper

pretty love words in your ear

Lay you down and tell you all the things

A women wants to hear

I'll let you know how much it means

Just having you around

And darling how I'd love to lay you down



there's so many ways your sweet love

Made this house into a home

You've got a way of doing

little things that turn me on

Like standing in the kitchen

In your faded cotton gown

Oh darling how I'd love to lay you down

(chorus)

When a whole lot of Decembers

Are showing in your face

Your auburn hair has faded

And silver takes it's place

You'll be just as lovely

And I'll still be around

And darling if I can I know

I'd love to lay you down

(chorus)

one key lower.. repeat chorus

one key lower.. repeat chorus
