Lay Down Beside Me lyrics
(feat. John Waite)

[John Waite:]
I ve spent my life
Lookin for you
Findin my way
Wasn t easy to do
But I knew there was you
All the while
And it s been worth
Every mile

So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
And kiss all the hurtin
Of this world away
Hold me so close
That I feel your heart beat
And don t ever wander away

[Alison Krauss:]
Mornings and evenings
All were the same
There was no music
Til I heard your name
I knew when I saw you smile
And now I can rest for a while

[Together:]
So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurtin
Of this world away
Hold me so close
That I feel your heart beat
And don t ever wander away

And hold me so close
That I feel your heart beat
And don t ever wander away

[she hums]
he sings
Love me and hide me

[both hum]
he sings
Til I feel your heart beat

[both hum]
