There’s a stone over everything we knew Can you tell me if the ground holds any truth? Do the clouds begin to clear, When you whisper in my ear? Hold me near before my fear begins to brew
Was it you when my flaws began to grow Who showed me what I did and did not know? How mistakes are firmly laid Like the ground beneath the spade And the pain has no reason left to flow
Lay my heart in the middle of the road Drop a coal on the ice in my soul Oh, the steam is gonna rise When I lay between your thighs Multiply my love and set it in your bones
There’s a light from a slowly burning fuse Did you see it lighting up our room? It’s a tiny little flame That exposes everything And it hides like a secret inside you
Lay me down in the twilight Lay me down in the twilight Lay me down in the twilight Let this mystery carry me away
