Howie Day - Come Lay Down

fairish

New member
Come lay down at the edge
Come lay down at the broken edge
Come lay down at the feet of angels.
Eyeing you in a northern sky

Come lay down at the end
Come lay down where the time's suspended
Come lay down and hear the voices
Calling you from a northern sky

Follow me and don?t look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you're high
It's alright in all

Your eyes are open and singing.
Your eyes are open
And not quite breathing
Your eyes are open
You're seeing things
That I can?t see as hard as I try ...

Follow me and don?t look down
You?re alright
Come with me forget you?re high
It?s alright
And alright.

Don?t look down.
Keep your eyes off the ground.
So afraid
These days will fall...
Like tears down your face

Follow me and don't look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you?re high<>
It's alright
And alright

Follow me don't look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you?re high<>
It's alright
Alright

Notes:

The original title for "Stop All the World Now" was "From a Northern Sky" which was taken from a lyric in this song.
"Come Lay Down" was only played 10 times during the 2003 tour and was not performed once during the Spring 2004 US Tour.
"Come Lay Down" is similar in sentiment to Jeff Buckley's "New Year's Prayer" which Howie performed as a concert encore during his solo career.
