Linda Ronstadt - Someone to Lay Down Beside Me lyrics

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 love 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 is a common occurrence

Not like love that I feel in my heart

Still you know that maybe 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

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

The 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 I feel in my heart

Still you know that maybe all you'll get

Is someone to lay down beside you

And even though it's not real

Just someone to lay down beside you

You just can't ask for more
