Lay Me Back Down Songtext
von IV Thieves

I was sleeping around for somebody strange
Who walked in my house and led me astray
I looked at my hands and I looked for my clothes
What I saw was out of control
Taken to friends amongst my foes
Just pushed to the line while on a stroll
I left my mind on a bleak summer day
Felt no praise, heard no complaints

And then the thought really struck me
How you can do it all

You really do strike me
As a gnome who knows it all
And knows it all
And knows it all
And knows it all


But you′ve really missed the vital point
You've really missed the vital point
You′ve really missed the vital point
Lay me back down

I look in my eyes to look in my heart
Was looking for something to give me a start
I looked at the clock and I looked for the stop
I made a decision to lay down and rot

And then the urge overtook me
How you can do it all

You really do strike me
As a gnome who knows it all
And knows it all
And knows it all
And knows it all

I should have grabbed her while I had the chance
Grabbed her while I had the chance
Grabbed her while I had the chance

Lay me back down
Lay me back down
Lay me back down
