Stephen Lynch, Courtney Jaye - The Night I Laid You Down lyrics

We were young, maybe twenty
You wore a white dressing gown
Drinking wine and dancing slowly
On the night I laid you down

And the moonlight revealed your body
As the radio played some
Old Phil Collins songs
And we believed in something holy
On the night I laid you down

We had love in our eyes
We passion in our souls
There was fire in our kisses
But it was not a Phil Collins song

It might have been like Mike + The Mechanics
(I don't know who that is)
Yes, you do, he was the other guy in Genesis

M-m-m-m, I'm pretty sure that
It was Phil Collins (No, it wasn't)

On the night I laid you down

Any way (any way)
Doesn't matter (doesn't matter)
We made love (we made love)

'Til the dawn

Two hearts beating (two hearts beating)
Is all we heard (Oh boy, here we go)
Besides that old (There was fuckin' no)

Phil Collins song

Well, it might have been that song
From the movie with the jambox
(Say Anything) that's the one
(Who the hell mixes up Peter
Gabriel with Phil Collins?)
Well fuck you, I guess I'm no expert
(no you're not)
In fucking Nineties music (Eighties)
Whatever

On the night I laid you down
On the night I laid you down

Courtney: Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins were
In Genesis did you know that?
Stephen: Exactly yes which is why
Courtney: But
Phil Collins was the drummer and Peter
Gabriel was not the drummer stephen: No
He was the bassist until he was replaced
Courtney: But his music is so
Much different than Phil Collins
Stephen: You didn't let me finish by ummmm

Stephen: Okay I don't know that
Much about Genesis but
I know Invisible Touch had a
Cool hand on the cover
Courtney: Unbelievable you are so not hip
Stephen: And I know that Phil Collins had
An album called "No Jacket Necessary"
Courtney: No Jacket Re- Required thank you
Stephen: It was called
No Jacket Re-re-re-re-required?
I've never even heard of that

Stephen: Is that how he got Su-su-sudio?
Courtney: Someone save me
Stephen: You mean someone sa-sa-save
Me? "In your eyes" courtney: No! No!
Stephen: That's Phil Collins!
Courtney: That's Peter Gabriel!
