I will write you letters that

Explain the way I'm thinking now

I will return to you

What I have taken long before

I will return again

When it gets dark and day is done

And lay me down

In the hallowed 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 will recoil myself

Into the black and darkest night

And lay me down

In the hallowed ground

Where my (fore)father waits I will stay

So lay me down

And lay me down

In the hallowed ground

Down by your side I will stay

So lay me down
