LAY DOWN (Tom Evans/Rod Roach)
[from Over You (The Final Tracks) CD - recorded 1982 - released U.S. 1993]

Looking out of my window
See the loneliness inside
No one can tell me 'bout this feeling you get
When a safe kind of love has just died
Holding on
Your love has been holding on
A different kind of life from what you planned

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside
Won't hide itself away

Looking out in the memories
Wondering when it all fell down
No one can tell me 'bout the feeling you get
When the half of your life's not around
Holding on
Your love has been holding on
A different kind of life from what you planned

Lay down, lay down
Play your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
Play your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
Play your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside
Won't hide itself away

Looking out of my window
See the loneliness inside
No one can tell me 'bout this feeling you get
When a safe kind of love has just died
Holding on
Your love has been holding on
A different kind of life from what you planned

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside
Won't hide itself away

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside
Won't hide itself away

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside
Won't hide itself away

Lay down, lay down

LAY DOWN (Tom Evans/Rod Roach)
["Goodfinger" demo - recorded 1983]

Looking out of my window
 See the loneliness inside
No one can tell me 'bout the feeling you get
When a half of your life has just died
Holding on
Your love has been holding on
A different kind of life than what you planned

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause the feeling inside won't hide itself away

Looking out at my memories
Wondering when it all fell down
No one can tell me 'bout the feeling you get
When a half of your life's not around
Holding on
Your love has been holding on
A different kind of life than what you planned

Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
'Cause this feeling inside won't hide itself away

But you keep me holding, holding
But you keep me holding, holding on
Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
Lay down, lay down
Pay your dues and count the cost
