I will write you letters that
Explain the way I'm thinking
Now I, I will return to you
What I've taken long before
I, I will return again
When it gets dark and day is done
So lay me down
In the hollowed ground
Down by your side I will stay
So lay me down
And if you wanna stay with me
Oh, let me know before it's light
I will recoil myself
Into the black and darkest night
If you lay me down
In the hollowed ground
Where my father waits, I will stay
So lay me down, oh
Lay me down, lay me down, ooh
So lay me down
In the hollowed ground
Down by your side I will stay
So lay me down
Lay me down
So lay me down
In the hollowed ground
Down by your side I will stay
So lay me down
