Lily of the Valley Lyrics

Head in the noose

Shroud on my face

Relieved to be out and clear of the cage

Remember me

Lily of the valley

Black silks and white satins

Old primes and their lines

They will go on forever

But my part is done

It's time to go

Remember me, Lily

Remember me, Lily

Remember me, Lily

Belle of the valley

Cover my box on its way to the oven

Put my remains inside my guitar case

So I can be the last one ever to play it

Remember me

Such thrill in your passion

The light in your eyes

I would live there forever

But the sun is low

And it's time to go

Brandy and sherry

Buffet in the garden

Stiff upper lip

No tears or confession

Give them our story for old king and country

You and the children

My heart and my blood

Remember me, Lily

Belle of the valley

Cover my box on its way to the oven

Put my remains inside my guitar case

So I can be the last one ever to play it

Remember me

Lily of the valley
