    Lyrics
    We'll do it all
    Everything
    On our own
    We don't need
    Anything or anyone
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and
    Just forget the world?
    I don't quite know
    How to say
    How I feel
    Those three words
    Are said too much
    They're not enough
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me
    And just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden
    That's bursting into life
    Let's waste time
    Chasing cars
    Around our heads
    I need your grace
    To remind me
    To find my own
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me
    And just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden
    That's bursting into life
    All that I am
    All that I ever was
    Is here in your perfect eyes
    They're all I can see
    I don't know where
    Confused about how as well
    Just know that these things
    Will never change for us at all
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me
    And just forget the world?

    I would listen to this while laying next to my husband who was going through stage 4 cancer. I only wanted to soak up every moment with him and forget the world. 12 years post stem cell transplant, he is still with me and we will celebrate 42 years in June. I still want to soak up every moment with him.

    is a song/track about finding the strength to stay in a relationship despite outside pressures and challenges. The lyrics refer to wanting to create their own unique life and world, and forgo the expectations placed on them by the world. The refrain of the chorus, "If I lay here/if I just lay here/would you lie with me and just forget the world?" captures the central sentiment of the song - escaping from the world and its demands in order to focus on the relationship. Ultimately, it is a song about the special bond shared between two people who stay faithful and devoted to each other despite the trials they face and the outside pressures they experience.

They were married 52 years at the time my Mom crossed over to be with Jesus. Hard to believe it's been almost 7yrs since we lost my mom. Next year 2025 would make 60 yrs of marriage. My Dad will be 84 soon and is still going strong. God bless you!

      It is the bravest thing one can ever do. My Daddy died 2 years ago, I took care of him for 7 years 24/7. He had Alzheimer’s. I would do it again. My Father was born in Budapest, Hungary. During the
      1956 Revolution he fought against the Russians who Invaded his country. He had to flee his homeland, and after many months of hiding and traveling he made it to Ellis Island and began his journey, of learning English, how to survive, and the fact that he would never see his family ever again But he had drive, pride, and never gave up when working. Later he owned his own business, built half of the building in San Jose, CA., and lived a very comfortable life. He is my Hero.

    i get chills down my body every time i hear this song because it reminds me of the saddest time in my life. People have gone through so much worse but i will still share. I was so depressed in quarter 3 of school. I was tired of getting rejected. I thought the world was against me. I cried everyday, listened to sad music and looked up depressing quotes. it got so bad i cut myself and no one asked about it. This made me think no one cared. i often though of the easiest ways to die. Then someone i will never forget. A friend that is so caring, loving, and sweet. I dont know what i would do without her. i cryed so hard writing this comment.

  • @Wolly091170

    This song popped-up in my mind when my mother was hospitalized after a severe stroke. She could not move her arms, her legs, she could not swallow and barely talk. They only thing she could do was just lay there: “If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?”. A few days later she died of a pulmonary embolism.
    Two months after that, my little boy had played with the radio and had probably turned on the timer/alarm function. Somewhere in the middle of the night I heard music playing. As I went downstairs in the dark to turn it off, I heard that same song again: “If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?”. I like to think that this was not a coincidence…

      My great grandmother suffered a severe stroke when I was right at about 14 years old, it destroyed her and confined her to a wheel chair and unable to speak intelligibility. I was only able to get her to say "I love telephone" and she cried while saying it, she knew that it wasn't what she had meant. Thankfully, she passed peacefully in her sleep. It was sad to see such a strong willed woman lose all of her independence.

      Wow that’s amazing. Most definitely not a coincidence. Ive worked with the elderly before, and I really believe that the very young and they very old have a close connection to each other. They each have a closer connection to God, becuase they were just with him, or will be soon, and it is real shame that we lose it throughout our lives. This is a beautiful story, and I hope both your mom and your little boy are doing well

    LYRICS
    We'll do it all
    Everything
    On our own
    We don't need
    Anything
    Or anyone
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    I don't quite know
    How to say
    How I feel
    Those three words
    Are said too much
    They're not enough
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    Let's waste time
    Chasing cars
    Around our heads
    I need your grace
    To remind me
    To find my own
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    All that I am
    All that I ever was
    Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
    I don't know where
    Confused about how as well
    Just know that these things will never change for us at all
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

      Why is it that I can't ever find this song with the lines "I need your grace to remind me to find my own"? It's my favorite part of this whole song. Is it only the 2007 version or something? Because I swear I've sang them plenty of times with the lyrics in the song. Why is it now that it's never actually there? Even this video, skipped right over that part.

    he sent me this song and we cry anytime we hear it because it reminds us of one another.
    we both have clinical depression and several other mental disorders and we use music to remind us of how we aren’t alone and that there’s always a way out that isn’t death.
    i love him. so much. i love you Jax. i don’t know or care where you are but i’m so in love with you, it’s crazy.
    i will forever cry at this song. i miss him and i lying on my bed and crying listening to music.
