I wish that you could see Who I really am. It sucks being a woman, In love with an unkind man, Cause baby I would 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 screw you Over, do you even have a clue What I gave up just to be here, To serve your ass with steak and beer?
Baby that's love Baby that's real And all I've ever wanted was for your damn 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 with me
I'm not tryna 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 Baby that's your job to do Baby you should think I'm beautiful Why you wanna watch the set When I'm layin' right next to you in our own room I feel like you don't even know I'm there But I put a brush through my hair for you Run my fingertips over your back real smooth
Cause boy I need love I don't get enough And all I've ever wanted was for your damn arms To put 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 with me
I look you dead in the eye and say I love you In the eye and say I want you In the eye 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? Start talking 'bout makin' it better It ain't that complicated I just wanna feel your arms around me, babe Please say...
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 with me
