เพลง Lilies

Again tonight I sang a song

A prayer if you will

Fell to the floor on blackened knees

And all the trees fell still

Pressed my hands between my thighs

And poured the thistle milk

Begged the thunderbolts to strike

And mark me as alive

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Scented the night...

And so I finished up my prayer

Rose slowly and I stared

But I was empty as a grave

And ghostless was the air

Lay back to bed and dulled my eyes

And searched those fruitless skies

Again begged the thunderbolt to strike

To mark me or else I would die

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Scented the night...

in And the seconds before sleep

And in the seconds before sleep

Did I believe what I did see?

Did I believe what came to me?

Appeared the figure of a man

Waving upon the hill

To the window I ran

And saw what he had sent

Children of a private world

To be conceived in milk

A hundred marching to my door

All bringing dreams to drink

Thank God I'm alive!

Thank God I'm alive!

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Oh the lilies on the hill

Scented the night...
