THE WRECKERS
"Lay Me Down"
(Michelle Branch / Jessica Harp / Greg Wells)

You let me in 'cause after all
It seemed like the right thing to do, oh-oh
I close my eyes and let you fall
I wonder what you could possibly know
About breaking down, that I don't
It's been a while since I begged for
Anything, but now I want more, so

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
It's been awhile
Since I begged for
Anything but now I want more

[Chorus:]
Lay me down, I'm lonely
Yeah, oh-oh
You don't understand me
You never even tried to anyway

I hear you say it's not the same
I'm sorry, it's just something I just can't explain
So shut your mouth and hold me close
We both know it's better than being alone
I don't mind killing time
As long as I can see it in your eyes

[Chorus:]
Lay me down, I'm lonely
Oh
You don't understand me
And you never even tried

[Bridge:]
If wanting you's wrong
Then I'm wrong, I'll admit it
Time after time you'll realize
You don't mean it

[Chorus:]
Lay me down, I'm lonely
Yeah, oh-oh
You don't understand me. you never even tried to anyway
I'm sorry, lay me down
Come on lay, lay me down
You don't understand me
And you never even tried to anyway
