Lay Me Down
Carson Shmyr Lyrics

Every sidewalk I walk feels a little bit longer
Without you, every task feels more daunting and time-consuming.

When I'm not walking it with you
When you're not by my side, supporting me through every step.

It's like shadows just get deeper
Without your light, everything feels darker and more eerie.

The second your sunshine isn't there
As soon as your warmth and radiance are no longer present.

I find myself drowning in the darkness
I struggle to navigate and make sense of the world without your guidance.

Longing for a little love to harness
Craving your affection and comfort to ground me and give me strength.

So won't you lay me down
Please be with me and provide security and solace.

Hold my heart even tighter
Wrap me up in your love and commitment completely.

I need your company now more than ever
I am struggling and need your support to get through this.

If you could just lay me down
If you could just be here with me, I would feel so much better.

And when you smile
The joy and warmth you bring when you're happy is unparalleled.

It's like the universe stops for a second
Your happiness is so powerful that it isn't just limited to us; it affects everything around us.

To remember how to breathe
Your smile reminds everyone how to live in the present and relax.

And underneath the sheets
In our private moments, when it's just us two.

We find our peace, our sunrise, our garden of Eden
With you, I feel complete and at peace with the world.

Cause even, as you go to leave
Even when you have to go for a little bit.

You can't help but come back and kiss me
You can't resist your love and attraction to me.

And I know it's so hard for you to leave me
I know it's tough for you to go, but I understand and support you.

Trust me I'm staring at you and I see
Even when you're gone, I still think of you and hold onto our memories.

Everything I need
You are everything I could ever want or need in a partner.

Cause my love you're the answer
You are the solution to everything that is missing from my life.

To every question that I've wondered
You complete me in every way I've ever wished for.

You're everything I've ever wanted
You are the realization of my dreams and goals for a partner.

And so much more
You exceed every expectation and standard I have had for love.

And may the vows I whisper one day
When we are united in marriage, may my promises be a testament to my love.

Act as all the proof
I will demonstrate my love through my actions and promises.

I hope you know
I want you to understand and truly believe.

That I would live for you
I am willing to devote my life to you and our love.

Lost but found
I was lost without you, but have now been found by your love.

I've been up and down this ride before
I've had my fair share of difficult experiences and challenges in love.

And never have I fallen like I did
But none of them have compared to the depth of my feelings for you.

You have this quality in you
There is something special and unique about you that draws me in.

That I can't place
I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's there and I love it.

So let me say
I just need to tell you one more time.

Lay me down
Just hold me and be with me.

Hold my heart even tighter
Help me feel safe and loved in your embrace.

I need your company now and forever
I never want to be without you or your love.

If you could just lay me down
Please be with me, even in the hardest of times.

Oh I promise that I can be better
I am committed to making this relationship work and being the best partner I can be.

I can mix and match my ways to fit you
I am willing to adapt and compromise to make our love last.

If you'll just stay with me
Please stay with me and give me a chance to make things right.
