The things we remember
The pain we forget
You've been through so much
Without the time to rest
My hand is steady right by your side
Some things get easier
Over time

So lay your troubles down on me girl
Lay your troubles down on me
Lay your troubles down on me girl
Lay your troubles down on me

Sometimes its bad luck
Other times its fate
Good things don't always come
To those who wait

And i know your hurting
God knows your tired
Stay here a little while
Stay with me tonight

And lay your troubles down on me girl
Lay your troubles down on me
Lay your troubles down on me girl
Put your troubles down on me
So lay your troubles down on me girl
Lay your troubles down on me
Lay your troubles down on me girl
Lay your troubles down on me
