Lay Down Your Weary Tune
Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum
Struck by the sounds before the sun I knew the night had gone The morning breeze like a bugle blew Against the drums of dawn
Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum
The ocean wild like an organ played The seaweed's wove its strands The crashing waves like cymbals clashed Against the rocks and sands
Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum
I stood unwound beneath the skies Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And clouds unbound by laws The crying rain like a trumpet sang And asked for no applause
Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum
The last of leaves fell from the trees And clung to a new love's breast The branches bare like a banjo played To the winds that listened best
I gazed down in the river's mirror And watched its winding strum The water smooth ran like a hymn And like a harp did hum
Lay down your weary tune, lay down Lay down the song you strum And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum
