The Darkness - Lay Down with Me, Barbara lyrics
[The Darkness - Lay Down with Me, Barbara lyrics]
Leaves are rustling
Rustling in the sultry evening breeze (Ahh)
I don't wear pajamas
Trust me darling, you won't need that chemise
I know it's hard to love a man like me
But you do so with the greatest of ease
We created tender love from scratch
Don't you think it's time
We made another batch?
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara or I will die
I will surely die
Who needs moonlight?
Moonlight's rubbish, anyway, my dear
When the clouds obscure it
Look upon you, 'neath the chandelier
Let us not waste a precious moment
Blindly fumbling with the clasp
Of your brassiere
We created tender love from scratch
Don't you think it's time
We made another batch?
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara, or I will die
I will surely die
(All alone)
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara, or I will die
I will surely die surely die
Just bury me, Barbara
Bury me in a coffin full of money
And I'll love you throughout the afterlife
I love you, girl
Rustling in the sultry evening breeze (Ahh)
I don't wear pajamas
Trust me darling, you won't need that chemise
I know it's hard to love a man like me
But you do so with the greatest of ease
We created tender love from scratch
Don't you think it's time
We made another batch?
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara or I will die
I will surely die
Who needs moonlight?
Moonlight's rubbish, anyway, my dear
When the clouds obscure it
Look upon you, 'neath the chandelier
Let us not waste a precious moment
Blindly fumbling with the clasp
Of your brassiere
We created tender love from scratch
Don't you think it's time
We made another batch?
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara, or I will die
I will surely die
(All alone)
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara
Underneath the candelabra
Oh, lay down with me, Barbara, or I will die
I will surely die surely die
Just bury me, Barbara
Bury me in a coffin full of money
And I'll love you throughout the afterlife
I love you, girl
