Someone to Lay Down Beside Me

There’s somebody waiting alone in the street
For someone to walk up and greet
Here you are all alone in the city
Where’s the one that you took to your side
Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night
And they’ll say — woman sweet woman please come home with me You’re shining and willing and free
But your love it’s a common occurence
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that may be what I need
Is someone to lay down beside me And even though it’s not real
Just someone to lay down beside me You’re the story of my life
Well morning is breaking the street lights are off
The sun will soon share all the cost
Of a world that can be sort of heartless
Not like love that you feel in our heart
Still you know that may be all you get
Is someone to lay down beside me And even tho it’s not real
Just someone to lay down beside me You just can’t ask for more
