Bones

I wish that you could see

Who I really am

It's tough being a woman in love with an unkind man

'Cause, baby, I'd 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 do you over

Have you even got a clue

What I gave up just to be here?

Serve you with your steak and beer

'Cause, baby, that's for love (Baby, that's for love)

Baby, that's a real (Baby, that's a real)

And all I've ever wanted was for your lovin' 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

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

Convincin' myself I'm fair

Baby, that's your job to do

And, baby, you should say I'm beautiful

Why'd 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

Ran my fingertips over your back real smooth

Boy, I need a love (Boy, I need a love)

I don't get enough (I don't get enough)

And all I've ever wanted was for your lovin' 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

I look you dead in the eyes and said, I love you

In the eyes and say, I want you

In the eyes 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?

Stop talkin' 'bout makin' it better

It ain't that complicated

I just wanna see your arms

Around me, baby

Come and lay your bones down

Come and lay your bones down

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

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

Oh, I look you in the dead in the eyes and said, I love you

In the eyes and say, I want you

In the eyes and say, this is what I'm asking for

Ooh

Come and lay your bones down

Let me lay my bones down with you
