Would You Lay With Me Lyrics

Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my need were strong would you lay with me
Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear
In the midnight hour if my lips were dry

Would you go away to another land
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dieing hand
If I give myself to you

Will you bathe with me in the stream of life
When the moon is full would you bathe with me
Will you still love me when I'm down and out
In my time of trials will you stand by me

Would you go away to another land
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dieing hand
If I give myself to you

Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my lips grow dry would you wet them dear
Would you bathe with me in the stream of life
Would you still love me when I'm down and out

Would you lay with me in a field of stone
When the moon is full would you lay with me

Cover art for Would You Lay With Me lyrics by Johnny Cash

The title is incorrect; it should read, Would You Lay with Me (in a Field of Stone). It's a most beautiful song by a brilliant artist; it deserves the correct title. It's a song about true love. And I believe he had June Carter Cash in mind whenever he sang it. Theirs was a very special union when in Hollywood and Nashville it's not easy staying together and truly staying in love.
