why was i so ready to lay myself bare for you
every thought to share with you
correlate and care for you


why was i so ready to lay down with you
dive right in and drown with you

kingdom and a crown for you

your protective mother

told me not to bother
your prospective lover
warned me not to go there


why d'i need to lay it on the line for you
explain every sign for you

will you be mine i said to you

why d'i need to lay it on so thick with you

want it all so quick with you
think that it would stick


your protective mother
told me not to bother
your prospective lover

warned me not to go there

even with an arrow through my chest

i still could not lay down to rest
even with an arrow through my chest
i still could not lay down to rest
