I'd Love to Lay You Down

I'd just love to lay you down
A woman loves to hear
I'd still love to lay you down

I'll let you know how much it means
Made this house into a home

And dreams that might come true
You've got a way of doing
Pretty love words in your ear

Lay you down and tell you all the things
In your faded cotton gown
Just havin' you around
There's songs and poems and promises
Oh, darlin', how I love to lay you down
You'll be just as lovely
And if I can't I know that
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
Or moonlight on the ground
Lay you down and softly whisper
And silver takes it's place
When a whole lot of Decembers
Pretty love words in your ear
Pretty love words in your ear

Lay you down and softly whisper
Like standin' in the kitchen
Lay you down and softly whisper
A woman loves to hear

I'll let you know how much it means
But I won't talk of starry skies
With your hair all up in curlers

Lay you down and tell you all the things
My woman loves to hear
Lay you down and tell you all the things

A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
And I'll still be around
Lay you down and softly whisper
I'll let you know how much it means
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Just havin' you around
Just havin' you around
Are showin' in your face
My woman loves to hear
I'll come right out and tell you
Just havin' you around

Pretty love words in your ear
Your auburn hair has faded
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down

Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
Pretty love words in your ear
There's so many ways your sweet love's
Lay you down and softly whisper
Lay you down and tell you all the things
I still love to lay you down
Little things that turn me on
I'll let you know how much it means
