Come and lie beside me now my love
Come, I´ve always been too shy in love

My voice is narrow
And a boy ain´t supposed to cry
Until tomorrow:

Let me down gently
Let me down gently
Let me down gently
I´m too young, too afraid of heights to make the jump and fly

Knowing you will always be a trial
Knowing that you only stay a while

My deepest horror
And I know I ain´t supposed to cry
I´m safe from sorrow

Let me down gently
Let me down gently
Let me down gently
I´m too young, too afraid of heights to make the jump and fly
