You do not say "lie down on my arm". You say "Lie down in my arm". For that statement to be correct "arm" would need to be plural, thus...
"Lie down in my arms"
I would not use "lie down on my arm" as that sounds just too weird. It is the polar opposite of a cliche. That phrase is not use for a reason, it is not compelling. Arms are compelling because it is similar to a hug. When one thinks of Lying down on arm, it images just that, someone laying on top of someone's arm. It is odd and uncomfortable. The better phrase for one arm would be. Let me put my arm around you.
