Oh the party's kicked up a few notches look at us getting loose

She leans back against the wall and she watches tugging her collar like it might be a noose.



And everyones tied to their thing

To their past or their drink or the date that they bring

I just get tired all of sudden taking it in.



And I want to lay my head down on you



Because youre the only solid thing in this room



A room full of changes strangers illusion confusion,

I speak from my heart but im not really sure if its true.

I wanna lay my head down on you.



Oh dont waste too much time planning

Or you'll get rug ripped out

And the only way you'll be satisfied

Is learning to live with out.

But some plan for the kingdom of heaven

And some take their chances and bet lucky seven

I don't know what to believe I just show up and breathe anymore.



And I wanna lay my head down on you

Because youre the only solid thing in this room



A room full of dressers, professors, lookers, hookers

If I don't get out I'll do something I don't wanna do.



And I wanna lay my head down on you.



Was it so long ago

That we sat and talked in your car

Your things were all packed

And the place you were headed not really that far

Years later I think

That I would have been much more alive

To have taken you up on your offer and taken that drive



Well everything that's come before us leads us to where we are now

And thats simple, I know so why cant I let go of the feeling

That im lost somehow

I'm just a ghost looking in

Out of my own life just visiting

In search of a body to have and to hold and to keep and to sleep.



I wanna lay my head down on you

Because youre the only solid thing in this room

A room full of missed chance, slow dance, cold fate heartache

I showed up for a party and saw my life story full view



And I wanna lay my head down on you.
