This was followed by his post-Idol major-label debut 'David Cook' which was released on November 18, 2008 and has since been certified platinum by the RIAA, as were two singles from the album, “Light On” and “Time of My Life.” A third single, “Come Back To Me,” read more. On April 30, 2013, Cook released a new single, 'Laying Me Low', through XIX Recordings, the record label of American Idol creator Simon Fuller, although Cook shortly departed from Fuller's label. Cook co-penned country music singer David Nail's 2014 single, 'Kiss You Tonight' from his album I'm a Fire.
I remember when you lit my flame
A bit of pressure with a pinch of pain
You left me praying for a single drop of rain, oh
But now the fire’s burning out of control
Because I’m never gonna let you go
So bring the gasoline and we can start the show, oh
You got under my skin and I can’t begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I’ll just hold on and try to be strong
And I fall apart when I’m with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you’re really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I’ll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you’re laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Well I remember every broken line
I’m just the victim of the perfect crime
You keep running while I keep on doing time, oh
So give me something just to keep me sane
I only wanna hear you say my name
Now I know I’m never gonna win this game
But I play anyway
You got under my skin and I can’t begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I’ll just hold on and try to be strong
But I fall apart when I’m with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you’re really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I’ll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you’re laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
And I fall apart when I’m with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you’re really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I’ll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you’re laying me low
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
(Laying me low)
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
You get me high but you’re laying me low
A bit of pressure with a pinch of pain
You left me praying for a single drop of rain, oh
But now the fire’s burning out of control
Because I’m never gonna let you go
So bring the gasoline and we can start the show, oh
You got under my skin and I can’t begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I’ll just hold on and try to be strong
And I fall apart when I’m with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you’re really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I’ll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you’re laying me low

Cook co-wrote 'Laying Me Low' with Andrew Waldeck and Chris Reardon and explained in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that he was 'refocusing on enjoying the creative process' of songwriting.[3] The single was announced on April 21, 2013 before being released to digital retailers on April 30.[1][4]
