Eric Clapton – LAY DOWN SALLY

by Eric Clapton, Marcy Levy and George Terry

There is nothing that is wrong

In wanting you to stay here with me.

I know you’ve got somewhere to go,

But won’t you make yourself at home and stay with me?

And don’t you ever leave.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.

Don’t you think you want someone to talk to?

Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.

I’ve been trying all night long just to talk to you.

The sun ain’t nearly on the rise

And we still got the moon and stars above.

Underneath the velvet skies,

Love is all that matters. Won’t you stay with me?

And don’t you ever leave.

Chorus

I long to see the morning light

Coloring your face so dreamily.

So don’t you go and say goodbye,

You can lay your worries down and stay with me.

And don’t you ever leave.

Chorus
