Lay With Me
Lay with me another minute longer
I’m not ready to let you go
Hold me in your arms a little stronger
So you feel loved when I walk out the door
There are thousands of things I should do
The dishes are dirty, the laundry’s a zoo
But all that I want to do is lay here with you
There’s nothing more important than you
Lay with me another minute longer
I’m not ready to let you go
Hold me in your arms a little stronger
So you feel loved when I walk out the door
Lay with me another minute longer
I’m not ready to let you go
Hold me in your arms a little stronger
So you feel loved when I walk out the door
When I walk out the door
It’s the end of the day, my sweet
Time to wrap up your play, to sleep
I’ll be up in a minute, to tuck you in
I watch as you walk down the hall
When did you grow so tall?
I remember the days I would carry you
When you were small
Lay with me another minute longer
I’m not ready to let you go
Hold me in your arms a little stronger
So you feel loved when I walk out the door
I watch as you ponder the day,
Sharing stories and funny games
Then I kiss you cause it’s getting late
And we start to pray
