John Martyn – May You Never Lay Your Head Down lyrics

May you never lay your head down,
without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.

Just like I'm greeting some brother of mine,
You know that I love you true.
You never talk 'n' judge me behind my back
and I know that there's those that do.

Oh please won't ya please won't ya bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
And please won't ya, please won't ya bear it in mind for me?

May your never lay your head down,
without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.

You're just like a very close sister to me
and you know that I love you true.
You hold no blame to stab me in my back
and I know that there's some that do.

Oh please won't ya please won't ya bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
And please won't ya, please won't ya bear it in mind for me?

May you never lay your head down,
without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.

Just like Im greeting some brother of mine
you know that I love you true.
You never talk 'n' judge me behind my back
and I know that there's thoes that do.

Oh please won't ya please won't ya bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
And please won't ya, please won't ya bear it in mind for me?

May you never lose your temper,
if you get in a bar room fight.
May you never lose your woman overnignt.

May you never lay your head now,
without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.

May you never lose your temper,
if you get in a bar room fight.
May you never lose your woman overnight.

May you never lose your woman overnight.

May you never lose your woman overnight.
