Lay Me Down

(альбом: Close Up - 2007)

Lay me down, won't you lay me down
Let me rest my weary head
Pick me up, I been here on the ground
Trying to make my daily bread

Should I ask for forgiving I need it
Never asked much from living believe it
So, lay me down, come on lay me down
Let me rest my weary head

Sail away, oh let me sail away
Way across the silent sea
I wanna fly, to a land so far away
Gonna let my spirit free

Well there's a pain and a hunger, like a warning
Like the roar of the thunder, in the morning time
Lay me down, oh just lay me down
Let me rest my weary head

Looking out my window – I been
Looking out my back door
Just wondering where I'm going
Just wondering where I been – and I say

Lay me down, oh won't you lay me down
Let me rest my weary head

I'm looking out my window – I been
Looking out my back door
Just wondering where I'm going, yeah
Oh I'm wondering where I been – and I say

Lay me down, oh won't you lay me down
Let me rest my weary head
Pick me up, I been here on the ground
Trying to make my daily bread

Well I don't ask much, I guess I knew it
All the love in the world well that won't do it

So lay me down, oh baby lay me down
Let me rest my weary head
