lyrics

Lay Low

I kissed you when you drew the world beneath a starlit sky
I cradled you from earth to earth in clothes of endless flight
I held you in the magnitude of all your father’s fight
And watched the kiss of your undoing fly

Lay low my son and calm the waters
Lay low my son and see the day
Lay low my son or wear these promises unspun
Where’s the kingdom you have won?

In worlds of futures come and gone they will a light renew
On hallowed ground a face surrounded by the deepest blue
They’ll sing a soft refrain that I had joy to see your pain
When I would give my body and my blood to be there in your place

Lay low my son and calm the waters
Lay low my son and see the day
Lay low my son or wear these promises unspun
Where’s the kingdom you have won?
