Lay Away Your Heart

Brenda Lee · Other Songs - Brenda Lee

(J. Krisniski - R. Vining)



There's a price tag on your heart

And I ain't got a dime

And I can't afford to fall in love with you

It's tearing me apart wishing you were mine

There's one thing I'm asking you to do.



Won't you lay away your heart

I know I'll find a way

I'll sacrifice to meet the price

Your asking me to pay

Won't you lay away your heart

Before another comes along

And tries to buy the merchandise

I've wanted for so long.



There's a price tag on your heart

And I ain't got a dime

But somehow I believe the payments due

My credits good to start and I'll pay it off in time

With all the loving that I have for you.



Won't you lay away your heart

I know I'll find a way

I'll sacrifice to meet the price

Your asking me to pay

Won't you lay away your heart

Before another comes along

And tries to buy the merchandise

I've wanted for so long.



Won't you lay away your heart

I know I'll find a way

I'll sacrifice to meet the price your asking me to pay

Whoa, won't you lay away your heart

Before another comes along

And tries to buy the merchandise

I've wanted for so long...
