Lay Me Down

You lay me down gently
And listened to the sounds
That made me shiver in the cold
Fly me close to the sun
Melting as your arms delivered me warm
Warm and whole

Way before the baby's crying came for us
Way before your night flights had begun

Was I possessed completely
You circle and you hover even in sleep
Even in sleep
Runs so deep

Way before the baby's crying came for us
Way before your night flights had begun
Way before the lines appeared around my eyes
And only just before the setting sun

You lay me down gently
Lay me down gently
Lay me down

Way before the baby's crying came for us
Way before your night flights had begun
Way before the lines appeared around my eyes
And only just before the setting sun

You lay me down gently
Lay me down gently
Lay me down gently
