Lay down your head And sleep, sleep I'll be your pillow Soft and deep Leave me your troubles I will keep Your days gone by Your days gone by Lay down your head And dream, dream You're so much gentler Than you seem Is there a chance You might redeem My days gone by My days gone by And oh His breath is so warm Mine is short And my ears are ringing Everywhere my skin is singing Lay down your head And sleep, sleep I will be pleased your soul to keep Give yourself over to the deep Of days gone by Of days gone by
