Lay This Body Down
Sam Lee| Long Time Travelling | |
| Oh graveyard, oh graveyard I'm walking through the graveyard Lay this body down I see the starlight I'm walking through the starlight Lay this body down I see the moonlight I'm walking through the moonlight Lay this body down I lie in the grave I'm lying in the graveyard Lay this body down I go to judgement In the evening of the day Lay this body down My soul and your soul Will meet on that day Lay this body down Oh graveyard, oh graveyard I'm walking through that graveyard Lay this body down | I'm a long time travelling here below I'm a long time travelling away from home I'm a long time travelling here below To lay this body down Ye fleeting charms of earth farewell, Your springs of joy are dry. My soul now seeks a better home, A brighter world on high. Farewell my friends whose tender cares Has long engaged my love. Your fond embrace I now exchange For better friends above. |
