Bilingual
We were so close
There was no room
We bled inside
Each other's wounds
We all had caught
The same disease
And we all sang
The songs of peace
Some came to sing
Some came to pray
Some came to keep
The dark away
Lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
You gotta lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
So raise the candles high
'Cause if you don't
We could stay black against the night
Oh, raise them higher again
And if you do
We could stay dry against the rain
Lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
You gotta lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown

Little sisters of the sun lit candles in the rain
Fed the world on oats and raisins, candles in the rain
And they lit a fire to the soul who never knew he had a friend
Oh, men can live as brothers, I heard them say, candles in the rain
To be there was to remember so I'm gonna lay it down again
I'm gonna lay it down one more time
Lay it down, lay it down again
I think that men can live as brothers, candles in the rain
You gotta lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
You gotta lay down, lay down
Lay down
Let your white bird smile up
At the ones who stand and frown
