Lay Our Flowers Down - Lady A

Written by：Erickson Fernández/Miltón Restituyo

Candle wax like a river on the concrete

Fears will fly if you let them

Pattern leather dress shoes on a baby's feet

Is he too young to tell him

People come and gather round

Only love can lift us now

We find our common thread over tear stained ground

Raise our voices up lay our flowers down

White knuckles cotton beads on a rosary

Hoping one has an answer

You hung it on the mirror only as a novelty

But now you squeeze it 'til your hands hurt

People come and gather round

Only love can lift us now

We find our common thread over tear stained ground

Raise our voices up lay our flowers down

Oh lay'em down

Another bad sign another hard time

Headlines you can't ignore

This ain't the first time

This ain't the last time

Trouble's flying at your door

People come people come

Oh people come and gather round

Only love can lift us now

Only love can lift us now

We find our common thread over tear stained ground

Raise our voices up lay our flowers down

Raise our voices up lay our flowers down

Raise our voices up

Raise our voices up lay our flowers down

Oh lay'em down
