Sit down - James

Sit down - James

02 oktober 2017
Voor iedereen die vandaag op bezoek gaat. Ga lekker zitten. Zet ik een overvrolijk plaatje op.
Those who find they're touched by madness
sit down next to me

I sing myself to sleep
a song from the darkest hour
secrets I can't keep in sight of the day
swing from high to deep
extremes of sweet and sour
hope that God exists, I hope, I pray

Drawn by the undertow
my life is out of control
I believe this wave will bear my weight
so let it flow

Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
sit down next to me
sit down, down, down, down, down, in sympathy

Now I'm relieved to hear
that you've been to some far out places
it's hard to carry on when you feel all alone

Now I've swung back down again
and it's worse than it was before
if I hadn't seen such riches
I could live with being poor

Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
sit down next to me
sit down, down, down, down, down in sympathy

Those who feel the breath of sadness
sit down next to me
those who find they're touched by madness
sit down next to me
those who find themselves ridiculous
sit down next to me
in love, in fear, in hate, in tears
in love, in fear, in hate, in tears
in love, in fear, in hate, in tears
in love, in fear, in hate, down

Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
sit down next to me
sit down, down, down, down, down in sympathy
oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
sit down next to me
sit down, down, down, down, down in sympathy
down
