Lay down your head and weep mama
Lay down next to me
Till you cross the borders of sleep mama
Lay down next to me
Wish no words of sorrow
Nor whisper words of spite
Let the darkness in your heart
Melt into this nightOh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so badDrink some more of my wine mama
Take some more of my bread
Theres a million songs to be sung
But not a word to be said
If I call on the angel of mercy
If I call on the angel of light
Im way outa line but there aint much time
Storm gonna break tonightOh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so badLay down your head and weep mama
Lay down next to me
Till you cross the borders of sleep mama
Lay down next to me
Send a prayer up above to the pure white dove
Flying so high
I think the angel of mercy
Must have heard you cryOh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so badOh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that
Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so bad
