John Smith - Lily Lyrics




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 trees
Who never returns
What he takes when he leaves

Time the great deceiver
Says I ought to leave you
But I need you more than time can ever know
Its shadow long upon me
But you have 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 hope and all 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 endings new beginnings
In each new day the chance to hold
My lily in the valley of the rose

Oh, my lily in the valley of the rose
