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.
I will write you letters that
Explain the way I'm thinking now
I will return to you
What I have taken long before
I will return again
When it gets dark and day is done
And lay me down
In the hallowed ground
Down by your side I will stay
So lay me down
And if you wanna stay with me
Then let me know before it's light
I will recoil myself
Into the black and darkest night
And lay me down
In the hallowed ground
Where my (fore)father waits I will stay
So lay me down
And lay me down
In the hallowed ground
Down by your side I will stay
So lay me down
