Lay Down Beside Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1: John Waite] I've spent my life lookin' for you And findin' my way wasn't easy to do But I knew there was you all the while And it's been worth every mile [Chorus: John Waite] So lay down beside me and love me and hide me And kiss all the hurtin' of this world away And hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat And don't ever wander away [Verse 2: Alison Krauss] Mornings and evenings all were the same I heard no music 'til I heard your name I knew when I saw you smile And now I can rest for a while [Chorus: Alison Krauss & John Waite] 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 heartbeat And don't ever wander away [Instrumental Break] [Outro: Alison Krauss & John Waite, John Waite] Hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat And don't ever wander away Love me and hide me 'Til I feel your heartbeat
