Linda Ronstadt — Someone to Lay Down Beside Me

Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night [Verse 2] 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 may be what I need [Chorus] 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 [Non-lyrical Interlude] [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 may be all you'll get [Chorus] 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
