Girl, how you've been?
It's been a while again
Since I wrote to you last time

Girl, don't you think
The phone is not enough to tell
What I've seen and what I've found

So how are the new days treating you?
Light is always walking with a shadow
So when you say you are alright
I see through your saphire fire eyes

Hey lay now, one thing you gotta learn
Hey lay now, one thing that I can do
Hey lay now, when the world compels you
To wear too many faces
You can let it out and drop it
Let it out and drop
A jewel of tear on me

Girl, there's a smile
That I can make with you
Though we're living different lives

Girl, there are times
When I almost break away
You know how I always do...we all do

I used to look up to you so
The way you would listen to me moan
Tear after tear, you saw through me
and found a strength in me
I wanna do you the same

Hey lay now, one thing you gotta learn
Hey lay now, one thing that I can do
Hey lay now, when the world compels you
To wear too many faces
You can let it out and drop it
Don't you leave your heart behind

Hey lay now, one thing you gotta learn
Hey lay now, one thing that I can do
Hey lay now, when the world compels you
To wear too many faces
I'm always here to catch it
So let it out and drop
A jewel of tear on me

and go walk on your way
You don't have to say a thing
Oh baby I'll be here
C'mon lay on me
