| Dave Matthews Band – Lover Lay Down Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Good god ... what else can be said about this one! The passion is so thick, I can almost see the warmth eminating from my speakers everytime I listen to it. I think this song is the ideal "put out the candels, drink a little wine and go lie out on the bed with something sexy playing in the background" kinda song! | |

Well, the beauty to a DMB song is that it can mean so many different things to so many different people. Take me for example on this one: For me, in the first few lines, we see someone who is either affraid of himself or affraid of others for something he has done. His own pain and suffering has got to a point that he can not deal with his current place in life that the only option left to him, as far as he sees it, is to run from it all. Although, inspite of current dilema's, he begs the one person left that might love him to come along, but if they won't, then he'll run away alone. The sadest part is the simple truth; no matter what, he still runs away in the end. |

Well, I look at it this way. In the first verse, it would seem that he is saying to this girl (Sister), to give me all the pain and suffering you have. In the lines: -"A pretty face, but you do so carry on" and -"What's life like, bleeding on the floor" leading into the main chorus, tells me that he cares for her so much that he will bear the weight of her burdens for her so she may be happy. In the second verse, in a different view from Lara c's assement, I see him saying that, he suffers to, but is willing to take on more for her. I can see where religion plays in, but I say, she is possibly the religious type were as he isn't. And, all though she has most likely tried turning to God for salvation, there is no answer as she sees it. Where it says: -"I keep a gun on the book you gave me" tells me she wanted to help him with his troubles by offering God, but he leaves it collecting dust with his other means of "salvation" he could potentially use(the gun). In the line: -"Black is the kiss the touch of a serpent son. It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you one" relates to me as the wanting to die (death = the serpent) and an atempted sucide (the mark and scar) to realy try and reach God, if you get what I'm saying. Finally, the parts before the chorus: -"You'll never make me leave I wear this on my sleeve You wanna follow something Give me a better cause to lead Just give me what I need Give me a reason to believe " is him telling her that he, unlike her God, will never leave her and he as well needs her to keep going. This is just my opinion, hope you like it. |
