CYNDI LAUPER - Lay Me Down lyrics

rate me

An empty street, a quiet smile

Without steady feet

You know the reckless kind

Keep coming, coming back

To the same old place

With that wild eyed stare

Up in your face

Lay me down, let me down

In a big old town

Lay me down, let me down

In a big old town

He must have lost his soul

When he found the rent

He wrestles with control

Still hasn't pinned it yet

Once in , once in a while

Loose that cigarette

There's always some strange smile

Underneath his breath

Lay me down, let me down...

... passion's fist against a wall

The crush of a kiss, the rise and fall

Take me there, take me there

To that wounded sound

It's just love's despair

Gone and hit the ground

Lay me down,, let me down

In a big old town... in a big old town...
