Ryan Leslie - Lay U Down lyrics

rate me

[INTRO:]

This is brand new, you know

It's a new format

It's what I call a club ballad

It's fast but it's slow

Slow but it's fast

It's kinda like

How it feels when you meet somebody for the first time and

Everything seems like it's goin' in slow motion

But your heart, your heart's goin' a mile a minute

This is what you might tell her

'Cause you know what you wanna do

So you ask her

[HOOK:]

Oh suga

Can I lay U down (down)

I can't control the beat of my heart

Can U hear the sound (now)

This is no ordinary feeling

I've got tonite

So I'm askin

Oh suga

Can I lay U down

[VERSE 1:]

I waited all night for this moment

Can't hold back, can't control it

Lookin' in your eyes I see

What U wanna do with me

U threw me off track when U walked in

Minutes after that we was talking

Didn't even know your name

Wondered if U felt the same...

[B-SECTION:]

...Way I was feelin

A strange kind of feelin

Like I knew U, what did U do

To make me feel this way?

Maybe I'm jumping the gun, but

U look like U could be someone

I could love in harmony

Please don't make it hard for me

[HOOK]

[VERSE 2:]

Now I'm caught up in the feelin

'Cause you're lookin' so good, so appealin'

Better than my eyes can see

Girl, I realize that we

Got the same wavelength of thinking

U was playing shy, I was winkin

Though I didn't know your name

Wondered if U felt the same...

[B-SECTION]

[BRIDGE:]

'Cause I can't let U go, no

If I let U leave, then we'll never know, oh

Girl, we need some private time, yeah

So you can understand

Get to know the plans that's on my mind

[HOOK OUT]
