Slow down, lie down 00:00
Remember it's just you and me 00:06
Don't sell out, bow out 00:13
Remember how this used to be 00:19
I just want you closer, is that alright? 00:24
Baby let's get closer, tonight 00:30
Grant my last request and just let me hold you 00:37
Don't shrug your shoulders, lay down beside me 00:41

[English]

Slow down, lie down
Remember it's just you and me
Don't sell out, bow out
Remember how this used to be
I just want you closer, is that alright?
Baby let's get closer, tonight
Grant my last request and just let me hold you
Don't shrug your shoulders, lay down beside me
Sure I can accept that we're going nowhere
But one last time let's go there, lay down beside me, oh
And I've found that I'm bound
To wander down that one-way road, oh
And I realized all about your lies
But I'm no wiser than the fool that I was before
I just want you closer, is that alright?
Baby let's get closer, tonight
Grant my last request and just let me hold you
Don't shrug your shoulders, lay down beside me
And sure I can accept that we're going nowhere
But one last time let's go there, ooh, lay down beside me, oh
Baby, baby, baby
Tell me how can, how can this be wrong?
Grant my last request and just let me hold you
Don't shrug your shoulders, lay down beside me
Sure I can accept that we're going nowhere
But one last time let's go there, lay down beside me
Grant my last request and just let me hold you
Don't shrug your shoulders, lay down beside me
And sure I can accept that we're going nowhere
But one last time let's go there, lay down beside me
Oh, woah-oh
Yeah, lay down beside
One last time let's go there, lay down beside me
