Lay You Down (Lyrics)

Lay You Down (Lyrics)

Suburban kids commune with the city over radio
While I'm overwhelmed by the words on every window.
Words on every corner,
I see words on every window.

And we're always late,
We're always hurried.
We're always worried we won't make it to the end--
Oh, but I see the end.

It's when I'll sing Hallelujah,
Oh, and I'll pull you in,
It's when I'll sing Hallelujah,
Oh, and I'll lay you down.

And the leaves are falling down again,
They're fallin' down.
And the world comes apart,
I've seen it happen time and again.

But I'll find you in shade,
Like the trees that rise above it.
Oh, you rise above it.

And we've seen our lives played out on stage,
And we're tired of pressin' forward,
Tired of pressin' on.
And I'm tired of movin' forward,
Wanna stay just where we are.
