Natasha Bedingfield - Lay Down lyrics
[Natasha Bedingfield - Lay Down lyrics]
Speechless but the answers in my mouth
Breathless the emotions seeping out
Beyond my control you spoke to my silence
Why so cold?
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
Cracking my defenses breaking down
The unravelling of a rope I put around me
You won't take no for an answer
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
I didn't know I was missing out
'til you lost and I, i won
You made me realize my incompleteness alone
Can no longer live by candlelight
When you show me the sun, oh
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
Lay me down lay me down
Lay me down
(While you let go, I hold too tightly)
Lay me down
(I take my aim, you hit the floor)
Lay me down
(I'm not ready to lay down my arms)
Breathless the emotions seeping out
Beyond my control you spoke to my silence
Why so cold?
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
Cracking my defenses breaking down
The unravelling of a rope I put around me
You won't take no for an answer
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
I didn't know I was missing out
'til you lost and I, i won
You made me realize my incompleteness alone
Can no longer live by candlelight
When you show me the sun, oh
You asked for peace, I gave you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the floor
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
Lay me down lay me down
Lay me down
(While you let go, I hold too tightly)
Lay me down
(I take my aim, you hit the floor)
Lay me down
(I'm not ready to lay down my arms)
