That's easy tho. He wants to lay down because the fire is ready and he wants to warm up

yea it do.. the poor bastard has got some emotional shit going on, including, but likely not limited to, some severely intense unrequited love. luckily an available supermodel was just a few years away.

how about this one from WWS:

that's right on par with "i want for to lay down".
matt's the drummer.. what's eddie's excuse?

"For to" is a pretty common phrase in country/folk songs.
