Lilies and the Rose Lyrics

Stay awhile, Delilah, there's no one's going to blame

Winter is coming, and the winds bring cold rain

For only an instant, you thought you were done

But shadows do follow you, the moment has come

But still, only you can know

Only you can say, only you can choose

It's hard, once the deal is done

Do you turn away and run, or stand and see it through

Maybe once in a lifetime, there's a fork in the road

We can fix what's been broken, or repay what's been owed

You'll rise from the ashes and set out again

Turn tack, no looking back, sailing on to the end

And still, only you can read

The tea leaves and the beads for how the story goes

It's yours to set it all in stone

Set out on your own, and bring it to a close

So stay with me, Delilah, we're waiting for you here

Stay 'til they vanish, those things that you fear

I might have been dreaming, but remember you said

There's much more to listen for than what's in your head

But still, only you can know

Only you can say, how the garden grows

So think of what you'll plant today

Tumbleweeds and sage, or lilies and the rose
