Passing Strange

Lay Me Down In Meadows

Lay Me Down In Meadows

by sloanranger

Take my hand and walk with me as far as love allows,

Lay me down in meadows,

Soothe my fevered brow.

Warm me in the winter when I'm feeling cold

And nights when I am very shy,

Your love... make me bold.

Chase the sadness far from me if I feel defeat,

Whisper calming words to me

To cool me from the heat;

Take me in your arms, if I am afraid,

Take me to a place with you

Where no one else has lain.

Rest beneath the shadows of ancient, mystic trees,

Lay me down and take me -

where grasses graze our cheek.

Love me, oh, my darling as far as love allows,

Lay me down in meadows

Soothe my fevered brow.
