You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you, to you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you,
I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call
All of this hurt, this hurt that I've been through
And I'm missing you, missing you like crazy
Can I lay by your side, next to you, to you
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight (lay me down tonight)
Lay me down
Lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you're alright, I'll make sure, I'll make sure I'll make sure you're alright
Take good care I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
