Lily & Bernard Video (MV)

Well it seemed enough
Two more strokes, too much to chalk it up to sheer bad luck
But when it's struck and struck again
It'll leave its marks
Tell you how things are
Though that'll change from where it's read

So Lily called Bernard
To let him know, that luck was telling her to up and go
To come and settle down with him
And if he seemed unmanned
By the change of plans
Well he wasn't ready to begin

But there's too much we don't know, he said
We better think it once more through
We better think it once more through

Now Lily was distressed
And quite displeased, that this idea had left him unimpressed
It had caught her quite off guard
She didn't understand
The problem with her plan
Or what was wrong with her Bernard

But we've been apart so long, she said
This whole deal has wasted years
And if I didn't know you better than I do
I'd say that you were trying to keep me here

Now this upset Bernard
It don't feel good, to have your words be so misunderstood
He was a little bit afraid
Of the plans they'd made
It seemed like more than he could do

Well it seemed enough
Two more strokes, too much to chalk it up to sheer bad luck
But when it's struck and struck again
It'll leave its marks
Tell you how things are
Though that'll change from where it's read
