May I lay my head on you? Promise not to fall into Helpless, hopeless love with you Far too fearful to do wrong by you I know you'll go on your way Find a man who's not afraid Who won't tuck his love away Knows you'll leave him but loves anyway God forbid you hold me Trembling through the night And when morning breaks I can't shake the shakes And I can't seem to make it right I can't seem to make it right I fall into May I lay my head on you? Promise not to promise you
