Lay Down - Melanie lyrics

Let your white birds smile up at the
Ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up at the
Ones who stand and frown

We were so close, there was no room
We bled inside each others wounds
We all had caught the same disease
And we all sang the songs of peace

Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up at the
Ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up at the
Ones who stand and frown

So, raise the candles high 'cause if you don't
We could stay black against the night
Oh, raise them higher again, and if you do
We could stay dry against the rain

Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown

We were so close, there was no room
We bled inside each other's wounds
We all had caught the same disease
And we all sang the songs of peace

Some came to sing, some came to pray
Some came to keep the dark away
So, raise the candles high
'Cause if you don't, we could stay

Black against the sky
Oh, oh, raise them higher again, and if you do
We could stay dry against the rain

Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down, let it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown

Let your white birds smile up at the
Ones who stand and frown
