Lay Down Your Head

Lay down your head and sleep, sleep
I'll be your pillow, soft and deep
Leave me your troubles, I will keep your days gone by
Your days gone by

Lay down your head and dream, dream
You’re so much gentler than you seem
Is there a chance you might redeem my days gone by?
My days gone by

And, oh, his breath is so warm
Mine is short, and my ears are ringing
Everywhere my skin is singing

Lay down your head and sleep, sleep
I will be pleased your soul to keep
Give yourself over to the deep of days gone by
Of days gone by
