Lay down your head and weep mama
|
Lay down next to me
|
Till you cross the borders of sleep mama
|
Lay down next to me
|
Wish no words of sorrow
|
Nor whisper words of spite
|
Let the darkness in your heart
|
Melt into this night
|
|
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that
|
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so bad
|
|
Drink some more of my wine mama
|
Take some more of my bread
|
There's a million songs to be sung
|
But not a word to be said
|
If I call on the angel of mercy
|
If I call on the angel of light
|
I'm way outta line but there ain't much time
|
Storm gonna break tonight
|
|
Lay down your head and weep mama
|
Lay down next to me
|
Till you cross the borders of sleep mama
|
Lay down next to me
|
Send a prayer up above to the pure white dove
|
Flying so high
|
I think the angel of mercy
|
Must have heard you cry
|
|
