Lay Me Down

I will write you letters that Explain the way I'm thinking now I, I will return to you What I have taken long before I, I will return again When it gets dark and day is done And lay me down In the hollowed ground Down by your side I will stay So lay me down And if you wanna stay with me Then let me know before it's light I, I will recoil myself Into the black and darkest night If you lay me down In the hollowed ground Where my father waits I will stay So lay me down And lay me down In the hollowed ground Down by your side I will stay So lay me down On the most westerly Blasket In a dry-stone hut He got this air out of the night Strange noises were heard by others who followed Bits of a tune coming in on loud weather He blamed their ears As unpractised, their fiddling easy For he had gone alone into the island and brought back the whole thing The house throbbed like his full violin So whether he calls it spirit music or not, I do not care He got it out of wind off mid-Atlantic He still maintains from nowhere It comes off the bow gravely Rephrases itself into the air
