There is nothing that is wrong in wanting you
to stay here with me
I know you've got
somewhere to go but won't you
make yourself at home
And stay with me, and don't you ever leave
Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night
long just to talk to you
The sun ain't nearly on the rise and
we still got the
moon and stars above
Underneath the velvet skies,
love is all that matters
Won't you stay with me,
and don't you ever leave
Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night
long just to talk to you
I long to see the morning light colouring your
face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye,
you can lay your worries down
And stay with me, and don't you ever leave
Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night
long just to talk to you
