I'd Love to Lay You Down

You've got a way of doing
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Just havin' you around
A woman loves to hear
And I'll still be around

Pretty love words in your ear
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down

Pretty love words in your ear
When a whole lot of Decembers
A woman loves to hear
Are showin' in your face
I'd just love to lay you down
Pretty love words in your ear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around

And if I can't I know that
Oh, darlin', how I love to lay you down
But I won't talk of starry skies
There's songs and poems and promises

Made this house into a home
I'll let you know how much it means
My woman loves to hear
I'd still love to lay you down
Your auburn hair has faded
Lay you down and softly whisper

Little things that turn me on
Just havin' you around
There's so many ways your sweet love's
I'll let you know how much it means
And dreams that might come true
I'll let you know how much it means

Lay you down and tell you all the things
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
You'll be just as lovely
I'll come right out and tell you
In your faded cotton gown
My woman loves to hear
I still love to lay you down
With your hair all up in curlers
Lay you down and tell you all the things

Lay you down and softly whisper

Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
A woman loves to hear
Like standin' in the kitchen
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Just havin' you around
I'll let you know how much it means
And silver takes it's place
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Lay you down and softly whisper

Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and softly whisper
Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear

Or moonlight on the ground
