Queen Latifah, Meredith Brooks - Lay Down (Candles in the Rain) lyrics
[Queen Latifah, Meredith Brooks - Lay Down Candles in the Rain lyrics]
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
We were so close there was no room
We bled inside each others' wounds
We all had caught the same disease
And we all sang the songs of peace
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
What if I told you were stupid, destructive
Soulless
Callous, murderous, malignant, belligerent
Ignorant
Would you believe me would you like that
Or would you prove me wrong and fight back
I'd like to take the sunshine
Right from the sky
And let it shine on you through my eyes
You see we all in the
Same boat trying to float
So everybody grab a oar we
Can make it to shore lay down lay down
Lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
We were so close there was no room
We bled inside each others' wounds
We all had caught the same disease
And we all sang the songs of peace
Some came to sing some came to pray
Some came to keep the dark away
So raise the candles high
'Cause if you don't we could stay
Black against the night
So raise them higher again
And if you do we could
Stay dry against the rain
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
Lay down lay down lay it all down
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
