A boy he loved a girl
And the girl she f elt the same
They moved into a little house
In the town by the fountain
He said my love for you is so
It will warm us when it 's chilly
Each and every morning
I will bring y ou fresh lilies
And time went by
And love and happiness came and went
The young man travelled for a living
And was often away
She said i mis s you when your'e gone
But don't feel safe when you are here
Your mind is s traying i can't s tand those
Nights of booze and beers
Sometimes there's a coldness in the air
Yesterdays hope is tomorrow's despair
She wanted out he w anted more
Each and every morning
There are lilies by her door
Trouble took it's toll
And the old lovers split up
She said although i lo ve you so
This madness must stop
He went around in the w orld
But he missed her more and more
And one late night he showed up
And knocked on her door
She said why do you come here
When you know it's not okay
There is an air of v agabond about you
I can't take away
She looked at him and said
Be gone now you man of the moment
Even when i w as with you i was always alone
Sometimes there's a coldness in the air
Yesterdays hope is tomorrow's despair
She wanted out he w anted more
Each and every morning
There are lilies by her door
A boy he loved a girl
And the girl she f elt the same
But love is never easy
Happiness came and went
He travels through the world
But sticks to a promise he swore
Each and every morning
There are lilies by the door
