Now I Lay Me Down Lyrics
Out of the silence
Into the blue
You finally remember where you've been
You finally remember who you are
And you remember the light
Out of the spirit
Into the flesh
The animal heartbeat in the chest
The naked desire
The appetite
But you remember the light
Now I lay me down
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Out of the fire
Into the night
Communion of body into smoke
Human and sacred
The sacrifice
You will remember the light
Now I lay me down
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Now I lay me down
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Of light
To Dream
Of Light
Into the blue
You finally remember where you've been
You finally remember who you are
And you remember the light
Into the flesh
The animal heartbeat in the chest
The naked desire
The appetite
But you remember the light
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Into the night
Communion of body into smoke
Human and sacred
The sacrifice
You will remember the light
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Now I lay me down
Now
I lay me down
To dream
Of light
To Dream
Of Light

In the 30 years since I first listened, the songs are so much deeper. As life is deeper at 70 than at 40. Some things - the spirit ... the flesh ... the naked desire ... human and sacred ... abide through the years.
