Just havin' you around
A woman loves to hear
Made this house into a home
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Like standin' in the kitchen
Pretty love words in your ear
I'll let you know how much it means
There's songs and poems and promises
Your auburn hair has faded
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
Pretty love words in your ear
You've got a way of doing
There's so many ways your sweet love's
Just havin' you around
I'd just love to lay you down
I still love to lay you down
Little things that turn me on
And silver takes it's place
Lay you down and tell you all the things
I'll come right out and tell you
Lay you down and softly whisper
Lay you down and softly whisper
Lay you down and softly whisper
And if I can't I know that
Oh, darlin', how I love to lay you down
Lay you down and tell you all the things
Lay you down and softly whisper
I'll let you know how much it means
Pretty love words in your ear
When a whole lot of Decembers
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
You'll be just as lovely
A woman loves to hear
And I'll still be around
Lay you down and tell you all the things
In your faded cotton gown
My woman loves to hear
My woman loves to hear
Are showin' in your face
With your hair all up in curlers
Pretty love words in your ear
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down
I'd still love to lay you down
And dreams that might come true
Or moonlight on the ground
Just havin' you around
Pretty love words in your ear
I'll let you know how much it means
I'll let you know how much it means
Lay you down and softly whisper
But I won't talk of starry skies
