I've played your game
And I've played it well.
I'll be another fool
To hang upon your wall.
I laid my heart out
Like an open book.
It's a simple thing and don't take much
To crack it open and bleed.
Lay me down.
Lay me down when you're through with me.
Lay me down.
Let me bleed when you're through with me.
Don't let me think you're wrong,
Just let me fall down.
I'll pick myself up again.
It's the kindest thing you can do for me,
So, woman, won't you lay me down.
I lied to myself.
Tried to believe in you.
But it's hard to rely on the ghost of someone you hardly even knew
You bring things out
Just to bring me down.
Then you twist them about and shove 'em in my face
Til my eyes can't see any good.
Yeah!
The lyrics LAY ME DOWN of REO SPEEDWAGON is also present in the album Reo speedwagon (1971)
REO Speedwagon è un gruppo musicale rock statunitense formatosi a Champaign, Illinois, alla fine degli anni '60. Il nome deriva da una vecchia diligenza americana che trasportava merci e passeggeri. La formazione originale comprendeva Kevin Cronin (voce), Neal Doughty (tastiere), Gary Richrath (chitarra), Bruce Hall (basso) e Alan Gratzer (batteria). Nel corso degli anni '70, il gruppo ha attraversato diverse fasi stilistiche, passando dal hard rock al progressive rock. Il successo è arrivato negli anni '80 con album come "Hi Infidelity" (1980) e "Can't Fight This Feeling" (1984), che hanno generato successi radiofonici come "Keep on Loving You", "Take It On the Run" e il titolo dell'album "Can't Fight This Feeling". REO Speedwagon è noto per le sue melodie orecchiabili, i testi romantici e la potente performance dal vivo. La band ha continuato a registrare e esibirsi fino al 2025, anno in cui si sono sciolti.
