Pictures of Lily Songtext
von David Bowie

I used to wake up in the morning
I used to feel so bad
I got so sick of having sleepless nights
I went and told my dad
He said "son, now here′s some little something"
And stuck them on my wall
And now my nights ain't quite so lonely
In fact I, I don′t feel bad at all
I Don feel bad at all

Pictures of Lily
Made my life so wonderful
Pictures of Lily
Help me sleep at night
Pictures of Lily
Solved my childhood problems
Pictures of Lily
Made me feel all right
Pictures of Lily


Lily oh Lily
Lily oh Lily
Pictures of Lily

Then one day things weren't quite so fine
I fell in love with Lily
I asked my dad where's Lily
I can′t find her
Hе said "man don′t be so silly"
She's been dead sincе 1929
Oh how I cried and cried
If only I had been born in Lily′s time
Then everything would be fine

Pictures of Lily
Made my life so wonderful
Pictures of Lily
Help me sleep at night
Pictures of Lily
For me and Lily are together
In my dreams
And I ask you "hey mister have you seen?
