Lyrics
I wish that you could see who I really am
It’s tough being a woman in love with an unkind man
'Cause baby I’d give you the world, in fact, I already do
And how do you repay that, talk to me like I’m just a regular tramp tryna do you
Over, have you even got a clue what I gave up just to be here?
Show you with your steak and beer?
'Cause baby that’s love, baby that’s love
Baby, that’s real, Baby, that’s real
And all I’ve ever wanted was for your loving arms
To wrap themselves around me and say
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my eyes have ever seen
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down with me
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my heart has ever known
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down
I’m not tryna play the victim
Don’t wanna go hit to hit
But boy I shouldn’t stand in the mirror convincing myself I’m free
Baby, that’s your job to do
And baby you should say I’m beautiful
Why you’d wanna watch the Sat when I’m laying right next to you In our old room?
I feel like you don’t even know I’m there
But I put a trust in my head for you
And my fingers slowly, I’m back at you
Boy, I need love, I don’t get enough
And all I’ve ever wanted was for your loving arms
To wrap themselves around me and say
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my eyes have ever seen
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down with me
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my heart has ever known
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down
I’m looking there
And the eyes they say I love you
And the eyes they say I want you
And the eyes they say this is what I’m asking for
How can you sit and stare at the wall?
Do you even like me at all?
Stop talking about making it better
Ain’t that complicated
I just want to see your arms around me baby
Come on and lay your bones drop
Come on and lay your bones drop
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my eyes have ever seen
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down
Hey, girl, you’re the prettiest thing my heart has ever known
Come and lay your bones down with me
Come and lay your bones down
I’m looking there
And the eyes they say I love you
And the eyes they say I want you
And the eyes they say this is what I’m asking for
Oooh
Let me let my bones drop
Let me let my bones drop
