I'm a simple man

And I'm on my way

To whatever lies ahead

While aging day by day

And I don't know where I'll be next

Or if I'll be at all

I'm not privy to life's protocol

And I'm not seeking gold

I don't look for fame

That's all in my past now

Its another game

Though I no longer need the things I did before

I can't help but think there's so much more

Tell me what you're thinking

This I want to know

Maybe you could stay

I am so alone

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed

I feel heavy and the night is taking over

There's no moon up in the sky

We can sleep until it's light

Let the darkness be our blanket

I'm no sinner man

Though I makе mistakes

Weaving in and out of touch

And doing what it takes

To bе lucid, warm, and happy

Whenever I can

It's no promise but it's my loose plan

Tell me anything

If you'd be so kind

Take me away from this restless mind

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed

Today has been a long and endless journey

If you think that it's all right

We could dream right through this night

Let the darkness be our blanket

You are so composed

You know how to live

True to yourself

And always ready to forgive

And you make it seem so easy

Almost like it's fun

Must be peaceful when your day is done

The sun is setting once again

It won't be back for hours so until then

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed

I feel heavy and the night is taking over

There's no moon up in the sky

We can sleep until it's light

Let the darkness be our blanket

Hey-ey-ey lay down, lay you down upon this bed

Today has been a long and endless journey

If you think that it's alright

We could dream right through this night

Let the darkness be our blanket

Lay down
