Lillies Of The Valley ft. Niche Dealer Lyrics

Lilies of the valley growing in mama's garden

Little dog got injured roving round and fighting

Now he's home with crooked ears and lessons yet unlearned

Mocked by cat birds, eyes cocked to where the road turns

It's tragic how younger sister never really found her senses

After years of outpatient praying for a lighter sentence

And my brother who is a squire to me, he finds trouble everywhere he looks

You'd never stone a bluebird just for singing from your songbook

Oh, but it's a sad time, because my longest night

It never dawned with sunrise

It's a sad time

Though our shadows scatter on the grass, our sorrows have not grown shorter

It's a sad time, a sad time

Oh, the woman who holds me close is scorned by my heartbeats

Unpersuaded by my fears, brought to tears by my worries

She may not understand me, but at least she is forgiving

What more can you ask of love

That's all that makes life worth living

Oh, but it's a sad time, because my longest night

It never dawned with sunrise

Oh, it's a sad time

You're either waiting around to die

Or trying hard in vain to love life

It's a sad time, a sad time

Oh, it's a sad time

I never had a day of peace on this godforsaken earth

But the girl I got beside me almost makes my trouble worth it

I ain't got to cure her crazy, she ain't got the cure for mine

We lay together in the dark

She's just trying to ease my worried mind

Oh, it's a sad time

Cause when you try to live for peace

You're thrown into violence

And when you look for solitude

There never is any silence

And when you call out for love

Nobody ever answers

Fear, anger

Thank god there are some strangers

Who would love you in spite of everything

Who would touch you in spite of everything

Would you kiss me in spite of everything

I would love you in spite of everything
