Brian Wilson - Lay Down Burden Lyrics






So many years
Spent runnin' away
How many times I wished I could stay
Too much emotion
A hole in my heart
Feelin' alone since we've been apart and
If I had the chance, I'd never let you go
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

How many things I wanted to do
How many times spent thinkin' this through
So many nights spent here by the phone
Wond'rin' if you felt just as alone
While some things have all been
Crazy from the start
It's tearin' 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
It's always in my heart

Down, lay me down, lay me down
Lay down burden
Down, lay me down, lay me down
Lay down burden
Down, lay me down, lay me down
Lay down burden
