Lay Me Down (Roll Me Out To Sea)

(albüm: Nouveau Retro (What's Old Is New) - 2021)

There's dust on my piano
And dishes in the sink
Your side of the bed is cold
And I ain't slept a wink
As I read your goodbye letter
To the face inside my drink
Well you can lay me down and roll me out to sea

Got your picture from my wallet
And some pictures in my mind
A pocketful of memories
That I thought I'd left behind
And it's raining like a Monday
And the world looks so unkind
So just lay me down and roll me out to sea

Lay me down, roll me out to sea
Calling on a mighty wave to cover me
Lay me down, roll me out to sea
Heaven, if you're ready
Shine your light, shine your light on me

Now you've listened to my story
But I haven't told it all
Saw her with her new guy
She turned to me and called
When she asked how I was doing
I coulda crumbled like a wall
So just lay me down and roll me out to sea

Lay me down, roll me out to sea
Calling on a mighty wave to cover me
Lay me down, roll me out to sea
Heaven, if you're ready
Shine your light, shine your light on me
