There's a lot of ways of sayin' what I wanna say to you
there's songs and poems and promises and dreams
that might come true
but I won't talk of starry skies or moonlight on the ground
I'll come right out and tell ya
I'd just love to lay you down
Lay you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
lay you down and and tell you all the things
a woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin you around
oh darlin' how I'd love to lay you down
There's so many ways your sweet loves
made this house into a home
You've got a way of doin' things that turn me on
like standin in the kitchen in your faded cotton gown
with your hair all up in curlers
I'd still love to lay you down
Lay you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
lay you down and and tell you all the things
a woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin you around
oh darlin' how I'd love to lay you down
When a whole lot of Decembers
are showin' in your face
your auburn hair has faded and silver takes it's place
you'll be just as lovely and I'll still be around
and if I can I know I'll still love to lay you down
Lay you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
lay you down and and tell you all the things
a woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin you around
oh darlin' how I'd love to lay you down
Lay you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
lay you down and and tell you all the things
a woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin you around
oh darlin' how I'd love to lay you down
Lay you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
lay you down and and tell you all the things
a woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin you around
oh darlin' how I'd love to lay you down
