Lay Me Down

Sing to me sweetly 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

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

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"

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"
