Lilies of the Valley Songtext
Once upon a time, the story goes
Time's a-wastin', I was told
Feeling through the pages of my mind
In a letter, kind of sharp
Oh boy, another light has faded deep
Oh boy, lilies of the valley in my mind

Running, running, running, running away
That's the story of the day
Time is ticking time and all the while
All the trouble, all the guile
Oh boy, another light has faded deep
Oh boy, there beneath the valley and the sky
The forest for the trees

Oh, oh boy, another light has faded deep
Oh boy, couldn't ever see it in my mind
The forest for the trees

Oh, I wouldn't say that I knew
No, I wouldn't say
Another move
Take the luggage, I'll leave soon
Running, running, running for my life
I could feel you oh so high
Oh boy, another light has faded deep
Oh boy, there beneath the flowers in the sky
The forest for the trees
The forest for the trees
The forest for the trees
The forest for the trees.
