Lay Down Lyrics - Ruby Tuesday - Melanie

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 others wounds 

We all had caught the same disease 

And we all sang the songs of peace 

chorus 

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 

chorus 

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 

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 

chorus
