Lyrics

Heavy, beth wimmer, 2020

verse -
i stay with you, you help me keep the time
when i look to you i see my reasons rhyme
i come to bed late, and you take my weight
but am i too heavy on you?

you calm me down with your tranquility
you turn me on with spontaneity
if i'm afraid or fine, babe, i'm gonna share my mind
but is my head heavy on you?

chorus -
is my head heavy on you
is my head heavy on you
you take the road off my back, you're beautiful
but is my head heavy on you, love
am i too heavy on you

solo....

bridge -
you gotta tell me honey, am i leaning too much
it's not about your money, it's your healing touch
i wanna give you something, but i don't have enough
is my head heavy on you, love. am i too heavy on you...

verse -
your quiet eyes reveal your worried mind
you're here for me, but it's your turn this time
and i'm strong tonight, i'll help you feel all right
now lay your head heavy on me
lay your head heavy on me

(double) chorus -
lay your head heavy on me, lay your head heavy on me
and take the road off your back, my love is free
lay your head heavy on me......

lay your head heavy on me, lay your head heavy on me
you take the road off my back, you're beautiful
lay your head heavy on me, love
lay your head heavy on me
