Lay Me, Lie Me Low

about

My new song, ‘Lay Me, Lie Me Low’. A very soft, gentle folk song. I don’t usually write love songs so this is a bit different but sometimes, you’re just in the mood haha. I think this is one of my best efforts, it is a very simple tune without a bridge but it is supposed to emulate traditional folk songs in its structure. It is also quite minimalist in its instrumentation. I only added a bass line and a simple drum beat to my fingerstyle guitar and vocal melodies. I definitely think this is a great song for taking a walk in nature and I hope you enjoy!!

lyrics

Take me under an oak
Show me what you hold
Deep inside the chambers of
Your very soul

I’ll take you under an elm
Chime the golden bells
We’ll live like a king and queen
In our realm
Enjoy all that is ours before our death knells

Lay me lie me low
Warm me like a fire
Raise me like a flame
Bring me higher

Take me under a pine
Let me call you mine
We will live life beautifully
Before our time

I’ll take you under a larch
Be your triumphal arch
I’ll lead you to victory
Under the stars
Run around this town drunk as a tsar

Lay me lie me low
Warm me like a fire
Raise me like a flame
Bring me higher
