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

I've spent my life waiting
For that famous final scene
I believe 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

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 yeah they're 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, yeah, yeah

Before you was mine I was so lonely
Ain't it a shame
Heart must feel pain
Before you can get back on your feet again

So let's draw the blinds, forget wasted time
And let them old demons die
Take a hold of my hand then you'll 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, down on me
Down on me
