Crosby & Nash - Lay Me Down Lyrics
Driving out through the windmills
And some of them were still
Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind
And bend it to your will
Just how the story ends
The road is long and takes its time
On that you can depend
Lay me down in the river
And wash this place away
Break me down like sand from a stone
Maybe I'll be whole again one day
Lay me down, lay me down
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Somewhere between heaven and hell
A soul knows where it's been
I want to feel my spirit lifted up
And catch my breath again
Lay me down in the river
And wash this place away
Break me down like sand from a stone
Maybe I'll be whole again one day
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again one day

Majestic armories David & Nash 👋👋👋👋👋
Absolutely fantastic singing armory by the two legendary of David & Nash
Right down to my soul...
Been a CSN fan for 50 years. This song has always spoken to me, now at 64 more then ever.
Music is love
This song is the deepest song I ever heard in my life. I found this song in my worst days it gave me the fuel of the depression, but now with my confused my mind, it just gives me the chill. Like driving in a long road at early morning in a cloudy Friday. I will love this song and I will listen to it till the day I die!
sounds from Heaven itself
I Like this song...
makes me think of a very dear lost friend
Thanks for sharing. A few days ago we tried to help an injured fox that came to our garden, but it soon became apparent that the fox was to weak from its injuries to survive. It limped down to the beck that flows past our house where it laid down and passed away some time afterwards. I find it really sad that some would still seek to persecute and hunt these cosmic animals. Anyway. later this song by James Raymond by Crosby and Nash came into my head "Lay me down in the river, And wash this place away, Break me down like sand from a stone, Maybe I'll be whole again one day"
Thank you Malcolm for doing what you did. You are a decent compassionate human being, in stark contrast to the inbred vermin who hunt and kill these beautiful animals in the name of 'sport'. Those people would not be capable of appreciating a song so beautiful as this.
Going to have this song play at at my death
Song hits my soul. So beautiful. So peaceful.
Brilliant tune, sounds like it would have fit really well in the "Firefly/Serenity" series or movie.
Stunning.
Driving out through the windmills
And some of them were still
Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind
And bend it to your will
Even though it's hard to know
Just how the story ends
The road is long and it takes its time
On that you can depend
Lay me down in the river
And wash this place away
Break me down like sand from a stone
Maybe I'll be whole again one day
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Somewhere between Heaven and Hell
A soul knows where it's been
I want to feel my spirit lifted up
And catch my breath again
Lay me down in the river
And wash this place away
Break me down like sand from a stone
Maybe I'll be whole again one day
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again
Lay me down, lay me down
Maybe I'll be whole again one day
This song is on my playlist of music I want played at my Celebration of Life.
Pure sweet beauty.
Everybody go check out "Dragonfly", from The Thorns' wonderful and only album, from 2003. There were plenty of CSNY comparisons. This tune, from a year later, sounds to me like the grandmasters acknowledging the talent of the apprentices.
Sounds a bit tooo much like Dragonfly
Doc, could you post Live on??? I would if I knew how. If you do, think many would appreciate it.
Beautiful!
So glad this showed up on my Pandora. I had never heard it before.
God bless David ,James and Graham
Thank you James Raymond for writing this beautiful, soulful song......and nobody can interpret this song better than the great Crosby and Nash!
this takes me back to my spiritual and cosmic roots I am one with the Universe.
debdireen4 Yes! I hear you. This songs hits my soul.
The kind of sweet mellow combination of lyrics, melody and harmony that massages my soul.
Yes, as so many of their songs do and have for so long. Their singing is like honey. Love them!
How can even one person "dislike" this song? It is one of the most beautiful pop/rock/whatever songs you´ll ever hear.
My live is included with Crosbu and Nash. Two people that contol my live.
words say it all for me,lil deep but true
love it
inspirational song to the max
A great song ..... good lyrics.
BEAUTIFUL
