[?] [Verse 1] (Oh yeah) Like a foreign tongue, I can't speak I fell down for you For you I've played the clown Stayed around, did what I had to For too, for too long [Verse 2] Without my spine, I can't sleep or stand with you For you I sold this home, for dust and stone I did what I had to For you, for you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you, for you [Chorus] I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you [Verse 3] No license to play, you'll act the fool These tricks are getting old We take this road by being cruel This still remains unsolved I'm lost so far from home, we are adrift at sea, more like to see A perfect scene, a bottle green, a broken chance seam to seam (so lay me down with you) ooh (so lay me down with you) ooh (so lay me down with you, with you, with you, with you) Ooh ooh ooh oooh (so lay me down with you) (so lay me down with you) [Chorus] I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you I've played the clown for you, so lay me down with you
