Lily

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
