Too many days I wake up with an aching
Too many days have been wasted like sand
Too many hours have gone by without notice
Too many times I’ve let go of your hand

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady Lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength

All of the time I’m reminded of failures
My tongue has bathed in spit from a thief
(I am) dancing as close as I can to desire
(I am) repeating my shortcomings loud to myself

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady Lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength

Too many years have been wasted like money
Too many nights I wake up with a cry
Too many years have gone by without notice
Too many times I have wanted to die

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady Lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength
