Lay Down Burden Lyrics
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
Down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
Down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
How many things I've wanted to do
How many times spent thinking this through
So many nights spent here by the phone
Wondered if you felt just as alone
And while some things have all been
Crazy from the start
It's tearing 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
You're always in my heart
Down
Lay me 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
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
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
Down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
How many times spent thinking this through
So many nights spent here by the phone
Wondered if you felt just as alone
And while some things have all been
Crazy from the start
It's tearing me apart
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
Down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
You're always in my heart
Lay me 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

This song is so sad to hear and at the same time can lift you off your feet
