Lay Me Down lyrics - Jonas Karen

[Verse 1]
The tender pressure of your fingers
The bite of bourbon on your tongue
I walk away from you with bare feet on your wood floor
You watch me put a record on

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you could be the one

[Chorus] But I'm just a little nervous to love you
I should leave on the midnight train
This isn't gonna be a casual romance
It's gonna be heartbreak
But maybe lay me down, oh, baby
See what I can take
I'm just a little nervous to love you
But I want to anyway
[Verse 2]
You strike a match and light a candle
The tease of sulfur on my cheek
I press my palm against the tattoo on your shoulder
The cool cotton of your sheets

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you could be еverything

[Chorus]
But I'm just a little nervous to lovе you
I should leave on the midnight train
This isn't gonna be a casual romance
It's gonna be heartbreak
But maybe lay me down, oh, baby
See what I can take
I'm just a little nervous to love you
But I want to

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
But maybe lay me down, oh, baby
See what I can take
I'm just a little nervous to love you
But I want to anyway
I wanna love you anyway
Anyway
I wanna love you anyway
