There are so many things That I've wanted to say to you And a lot of promises That I made that I didn't keep And now just about the time I think I'm gonna lose you I realize how much I love you And I'm gonna show you The only way I know how Too many times I didn't try to hold you I never kept the promises I told you Now it's time I give in I know To the words That I should have said long ago Baby lay down beside me Wrap all your love around me I need you to stay So don't turn away From me now Baby lay down You've been alone I guess I've known about it You gave me love And learned to live without it Now that you've turned to go Let me beg you to stay The best way I know Baby lay down beside me Wrap all your love around me I need you to stay So don't turn away From me now Baby lay down.
