Lyrics Not Lie Down - Dougie Maclean

Speak your mind she said, but there are words best left alone
Try to be kind she said, for there's no grace in doing wrong
And when you're standing on your highest hill and you shout but no-one hears

You can fall but you must not lie down
You can fall but you must not lie down
And though you're lost in the deep of the fiddle's sweet sound
You can fall but you must not lie down

Pull in your tired wings, there's no need to know it all
Listen how the silence sings, now is the time for standing tall
And when you're standing on your highest hill and you shout but no-one hears

You can fall but you must not lie down
You can fall but you must not lie down
And though you're lost in the deep of the fiddle's sweet sound
You can fall but you must not lie down

Dream on little one, there are flowers in your hair
And see what the time has done, scattered diamonds everywhere
And when you're standing on your highest hill and you shout but no-one hears

You can fall but you must not lie down
You can fall but you must not lie down
And though you're lost in the deep of the fiddle's sweet sound
You can fall but you must not lie down
