Lily Songtext
von John Smith

Forget who I am
Refuse what I say
As I wander the plain
Of some waking dream today
It all disappears
Like a moon to the tree
Who never returns
What he takes when he leaves

Time, the great deceiver
Says I ought to leave you
But I need ya more than time can ever know
It shadow along upon me
But you who led me farther on
My lily in the valley of the rose


I broke like a wave
Reaching out from the sea
Eager to claim
What was taken from me
Now here I stand
Looking back where I came
Across the fields growing
Still and silent as my shame

For hoping or believing
I′ve given too much life redeeming every fear
It leads me where I go
But you walk out before me
A light inside the doorway now
My lily in the valley of the rose

Oh let me lay my head here
Let me make my bed here
And let the years reveal more than I know
In ending's new beginning
In each new day the chance to hold
My lily in the valley of the rose
My lily in the valley of the rose


Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
Oh my lily in the valley of the rose
