Lyrics

rest you now
cool your head
come in lay down, she said
take confort from my bed
rest you now
sleep awhile
cool your heart
I've been waiting since the start
but I am a ragged man
no longer young
I am afraid and ashamed
of what I have become
no life nor love
ain't been good to me
its been pain, sorrows,and miseries
through the midnight city we've been traveling
even as our dark hours unravel
we are strange passengers
wounded travelers
lost on our way
with nowhere to lay it down
won't you rest you now
into the endless evening
we've been receding
our tired eyes sleep softly a horizon
don't pray for purchase
don't pray for restition
ask only for a place
where you can lay it down
won't you rest you now
rest you now
cool your head
cool your heart
you have been found
you've been found
lay it down
lay it down
cool your head
cool your heart
you've have been found
you've been found
rest you now
