Come Lie With Me Lyrics

I've been looking for someone to thank for sending down this rain
(And I've been wondering who do I thank
For sending you back again)
'Cause it makes my nibbled lip
And my, from nowhere tears
Feel at home

Come lie with me and be my love
Lie down with me
Under the cypress tree
In the sweet grasses
As night passes

My face is neatly decorated with my yellow hair
Striped up by the fat drops fallen there
I squeeze it all out of my corduroy
Like the day you found me
The man who drives this bus
Raised me up a half assed smile in the mirror
But never mind
I'm gonna fold it up
Press it flat
Stick it in my pocket
Make it last all night

Come lie with me and be my love
Lie down with me
Under the cypress tree
In the sweet grasses
As night passes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
