4. Lay Me Down Easy

Words and Music by Kate Wolf, © 1974

Sitting in the sunshine trying to sing the blues away.
Not knowing where they came from or how long they will stay.
Picking out a little tune I never heard before.
And, wishing you were here at my door.

Lay me down easy.
Lay me down easy in my mind.
Cuz, Babe I’ve got the blues and there’s something you can do.
You can lay me down easy in my mind.
In my mind.

Babe, you know how it is when you wake up feeling old.
And, you wonder if you’re doing what you should.
Everyone around you can’t read what’s on your mind.
And, they might not want to if they could.

Lay me down easy.
Lay me down easy in my mind.
Cuz, Babe I’ve got the blues and there’s something you can do.
You can lay me down easy in my mind.
In my mind.

The seasons of my life go drifting through the days.
I’ve seen bitter winters come and go.
Here I am in sunny times not feeling like I could.
And, wondering when those winds will start to blow.

Lay me down easy.
Lay me down easy in my mind.
Cuz, Babe I’ve got the blues and there’s something you can do.
You can lay me down easy in my mind.
In my mind.

Lay me down easy.
Lay me down easy in my mind.
Cuz, Babe I’ve got the blues and there’s something you can do.
You can lay me down easy in my mind.
In my mind.
