Lay Down Sally

There is nothing that is wrong 
in wanting you to stay here with me.
I know you've got somewhere to go, 
but won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally 
and rest you in my arms.
don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long 
just to talk to you.
 

The sun ain't nearly on the rise, 
and we still got the moon a stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies, 
love is all that matters 
Won't you stay with me? 
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally 
and rest you in my arms.
don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long 
just to talk to you.

I long to see the morning light 
colouring your face so dreamily.  
So don't you go and say goodbye
you can lay your worries down and stay with me.  
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally 
and rest you in my arms.
don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long 
just to talk to you.

Lay down Sally 
and rest you in my arms.
don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long 
just to talk to you.
