Lay Me Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sing to me sweetley as I turn sour
Lay me down, remembering
That the wind and the rain
Played a part in that dreadful hour
And so as I pass, I too feel the power
Laying here under the trees
Where three days before
I danced in a summer shower
Chorus:
And she said "There, look through the trees,
The sun always shines, always on time,
Dare, rest on your knees
And in a prayer, follow me there."
Softly I slumber as I turn to powder
Blowing out over the sea
The wind and the rain billow me
Though I'm no longer fire
A bird is alone as the wind takes me higher
Now I don't know where I am
The bird can't hear me
As I shout out even louder
(repeat chorus)
La la la la...
(repeat chorus)
