Lady Lay Your Body
Carl Thomas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lady, would you lay
I'll rub them all away
1 - Lady, lay your body
Let me rub the lonely
Places all away
Lady, lay your body
I want to rub your loneliness away
Last night I think I fell in love with you
It was from a window watching you around my way
I was too shy to even call to you
So I wrote some words that made it easier to say
Lady, would you lay
Repeat 1
Visions of you around my bed
Nothing but roses when you rest your lovely head
And I'll put my everything in you
You know I'm the only one who knows just what to do
Lady, would you lay
Repeat 1
You've waited, oh so long for me to come your way
But now I'm here and sadness is gone away
Lay, lady lay, lay
Won't you lay with me, oh oh, whoa oh
Lady, would you lay
Repeat 1
Repeat 1
All away
Hey hey, I want to rub them all away
