Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you think the future would come falling in your lap?
Or somebody would show the way like lines upon a map?
In a flash you hand your time away, just bending to the wind
Never know where they end and you begin
You hold my hand and, babe, it always does the trick
Run yourself ragged, always let me have my pick
But you're working so hard now you're making yourself sick
And you're playing games you'll never win
[Chorus]
Caretaker, won't you lay it down for me now?
You held it all together, let it be now
When you start to feel the pressure, just release
You can leave that weight with me 'til you come down
[Verse 2]
You love your mother, give her everything she needs
Had another lover, asked for so much more than me
Wanna do right by you, honey but you gotta show me how
[Chorus]
Caretaker, won't you lay it down for me now?
You held it all together, let it be now
When you start to feel the pressure, just release
You can leave that weight with me 'til you come down
[Bridge]
I know you hear them knocking at your door
But you just tell them you don't live there anymore
I know it's hard sometimes to find a new way home
But you don't have to walk alone
No, you don't have to walk that weary road alone
[Verse 3]
On the night I met you you were hurting pretty bad
And even though you looked cool I could tell that you were sad
But your eyes were catching starlight, they were shining like the sea
[Outro]
Caretaker, won't you lay it down for me? (It all comes down)
Let it be (You'll come around)
Just release, you can leave that weight with me
'Til you come down
'Til you come down
'Til you come down
