When I Lay Down - Janis Ian[00:00:00]

Written by：Janis Ian/Skip Ewing[00:00:01]

They said lay down in the water[00:00:08]

Even though you don't believe[00:00:12]

All your sins will be forgiven[00:00:16]

And your soul will be redeemed[00:00:21]

So I walked into the water[00:00:25]

And I fell down to my knees[00:00:29]

And I took out some insurance[00:00:33]

And I bought a little peace[00:00:37]

But when I lay down I lied[00:00:41]

When I lay down I lied[00:00:50]

He said darling do you love me[00:01:03]

And I said sure I do[00:01:07]

And I led him to believe me[00:01:11]

As I proved that it was true[00:01:15]

Well I let my body love him[00:01:20]

God knows I really tried[00:01:23]

And the comfort of it touched him[00:01:28]

And his heart was satisfied[00:01:32]

But when I lay down I lied[00:01:36]

When I lay down I lied[00:01:45]

To make them happy[00:01:51]

And I lied so they would care[00:01:53]

I lied cause I was lonely[00:01:58]

And I lied cause I was scared[00:02:01]

I lied so some would leave me[00:02:06]

And I lied so some would stay[00:02:10]

I lied until I lied my life away[00:02:15]

I dreamed my life was over[00:02:28]

And they laid me in my grave[00:02:32]

I was frightened of forever[00:02:36]

And the price I'd have to pay[00:02:40]

And I thought that god would hate me[00:02:44]

Cause I'd lived my life in sin[00:02:48]

But I felt the truth embrace me[00:02:53]

As heaven let me in[00:02:57]

And when I lay down[00:03:01]

I lay down and cried[00:03:05]
