Lied ‘Lay me down’ – Sam Smith

Ontroerend

‘Kan ik naast je liggen en ervoor zorgen dat het goed met je gaat?’ Zingt de Engelse zanger verder. Hoe fijn zou dat zijn. Als dat nog even kon. Nog een keer tegen je dierbare aankruipen. Dat even alles weer goed is…
Een pijnlijk en tegelijk zo’n mooi nummer met een ontroerende videoclip.

Sam Smith – Lay me down

Liedtekst:

Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be, where I was
Right there, right next to you
And it’s hard, the days just seem so dark
The moon, the stars, are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain, the way I’m missing you
The night, this emptiness, this hole that I’m inside
These tears, they tell their own story

You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling’s overwhelming, it’s much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you’re alright
I’ll take care of you,
And I don’t want to be here if I can’t be with you tonight

I’m reaching out to you
Can you hear my call?
This hurt that I’ve been through
I’m missing you, missing you like crazy

You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling’s overwhelming, it’s much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you’re alright
I’ll take care of you
And I don’t wanna be here if I can’t be with you tonight

Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight
Lay me down tonight
Lay me down tonight
Lay me down tonight

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you’re alright
I’ll take care of you
And I don’t wanna be here if I can’t be with you tonight
