So many years spent running away How many times I wished I could stay Too much emotion, a hole in my heart Feeling alone since we've been apart and
If I had the chance I'd never let you go I just want you to know
Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden
So many things I wanted to do How many times spent thinking this through So many nights spent here by the phone Wonderin' if you felt just as alone and
While some things have all been Crazy from the start, it's tearing me apart
Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden
Just remember the way I held you You're always in my heart
Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden Down, lay me down, lay me down Lay down burden
