Lay Down

Strawbs - Lay Down



By still waters I lay down with the lambs

In pastures green I made peace with my soul

And I cared not for the night

While my guiding star shone bright

By still waters I lay down

I lay down.



Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

For my soul.



At the roadside I took toll of my times

In dirty streets I found peace for my soul

May the merciful be right

Are you ready for the night

At the roadside I lay down

I lay down.



Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

For my soul.



In deep sorrow I took flight with the sun

From mountains high I gained strength for my soul

I proved stronger than the test

When my spirit came to rest

In deep sorrow I lay down

I lay down.



Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

Lay down, I lay me down

For my soul.
