Simple Man

I'm a simple man
And I'm on my way
To whatever lies ahead
While aging day by day
And I don't know where I'll be next
Or if I'll be at all
I'm not privy to life's protocol

And I'm not seeking gold
I don't look for fame
That's all in my past now
Its another game
Though I no longer need the things I did before
I can't help but think there's so much more

Tell me what you're thinking
This I want to know
Maybe you could stay
I am so alone

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed
I feel heavy and the night is taking over
There's no moon up in the sky
We can sleep until it's light
Let the darkness be our blanket

I'm no sinner man
Though I makе mistakes
Weaving in and out of touch
And doing what it takes
To bе lucid, warm, and happy
Whenever I can
It's no promise but it's my loose plan

Tell me anything
If you'd be so kind
Take me away from this restless mind

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed
Today has been a long and endless journey
If you think that it's all right
We could dream right through this night
Let the darkness be our blanket

You are so composed
You know how to live
True to yourself
And always ready to forgive
And you make it seem so easy
Almost like it's fun
Must be peaceful when your day is done

The sun is setting once again
It won't be back for hours so until then

Lay down, lay you down upon this bed
I feel heavy and the night is taking over
There's no moon up in the sky
We can sleep until it's light
Let the darkness be our blanket

Hey-ey-ey lay down, lay you down upon this bed
Today has been a long and endless journey
If you think that it's alright
We could dream right through this night
Let the darkness be our blanket

Lay down
