Hello Darlin'

So I've decided that my (love) life at this point is pretty much the makings of a classic Conway Twitty song. ...And I say that after have YouTubed his songs all day. (No joke...)

So, because this song reminds me of good times with [you] and thus cracks me up--and makes me smile--, I shall post it for all of you readers.

I'd Love To Lay You Down
Performed by Conway Twitty

There's alot of ways of sayin'
What I wanna say to you
There's songs and poems and promises
And dreams that might come true

But I won't talk of starry skies
Or moonlight on the ground
I'll come right out and tell you
I'd just love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you now how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down

There's so many ways your sweet love's
Made this house into a home
You've got a way of doing
Little things that turn me on

Like standin' in the kitchen
In your faded cotton gown
With your hair all up in curlers
I still love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down

When a whole lot of Decembers
Are showin' in your face
Your auburn hair has faded
And silver takes its place

You'll be just as lovely
And I'll still be around
And if I can't I know that
I'd still love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down


Oh, Conway, I love you!

...And I (still) love [you], too.
