I wish that you could see who I really am It's tough being a woman in love with an unkind man Wish maybe 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 trying to do you over Have you even got a clue? What I gave up just to be here Serve you with your steak and beer Wish maybe that's love Maybe that's love Maybe that's real Maybe 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 trying to play the victim Don't wanna go head to head But boy, I shouldn't have to stand in the mirror Convincing myself I'm fair Maybe that's your job to do And maybe you should say I'm beautiful Why'd you wanna watch the set When I'm laying right next to you in our own room? Feel like you don't even know I'm there But I put a brush through my hair for you And my fingertips are over your back real smooth I need a 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 look you dead in the eyes and say that I love you In the eyes and say I want you In the eyes and 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 wanna see your arms Around me baby Come and lay your bones down Come and lay your bones down 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 look you dead in the eyes and say that I love you In the eyes and say that I want you In the eyes and say this is what I'm asking for Come and lay your bones down Let me lay my bones down with you
