Intro

Ohhhh ohhah ohhoh oh

Verse

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

Just want you to know

Chorus

Down lay me down

 Lay me down

Lay down burden

Down lay me down

 Lay me down

Lay down burden

Verse

Note change of key)

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

Chorus

Note change of key)

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

Chorus

Down lay me down

 Lay me down

Lay down burden

Down lay me down

 Lay me down

Lay down burden
