Lay Me Down

[Verse] Lay me down on that pillow soft Where my dreams will carry me aloft In my bed I'll find my peace Close my eyes let the world cease [Verse 2] We've had our days so bright and long Whisper nights where I belong Tired eyes but heart awake Yearning for that gentle break [Chorus] Lay me down to sleep tonight Hold me in that tender light In my bed with you I'll stay Till the dawn of a new day [Verse 3] Count the stars in evening's glow Feel the tiredness start to show Through each breath I slowly sink Lulled by thoughts that gently link [Chorus] Lay me down to sleep tonight Hold me in that tender light In my bed with you I'll stay Till the dawn of a new day [Bridge] When the silence wraps around All that's lost and all that's found In our dreams where love will flow Heralded by the moon's glow
