You see me howling at the moon It's what you taught me to do, hmm I'm chasing stars just to get back closer to you You see the ashes by the fire (fire) The only life that I knew, hmm I touched the flame just to get back closer to you Show me the way I'm done, travelled too far with a cross on my back And a hole in my heart Now you say there's no love to be found We're six feet down and I thought that'd make me closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down Closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down Closer to you You hear me beating at the door What else you want me to do? Ooh You got me crawling out the walls to get closer to you (Yes you do) Show me the way I'm done, travelled too far with a cross on my back And a hole in my heart Now you say there's no love to be found We're six feet down and I thought that'd make me closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down lay me down? Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Closer to you Closer to you Show me the way I'm done, travelled too far with a cross on my back And the hole in my heart Now you say there's no love to be found We're six feet down and I thought that'd make me closer to you Closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Closer to you Why don't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Won't you lay me down, lay me down, lay me down? Closer to you
