Lily One Lyrics

Lily, tell your mother I've been thinking

Winter changes nothing

The frost east can bring the highways down

I went to a movie I want to believe in



The actors were all looking at me

Stupidly, I sat struck dumb

Will this feel alright with the lights on?

Would it all be right with the lights on?



Lily, there's a picture of your mother

I'm sickened when I see it

It must be something to be her kind

I saw a movie I think, I believe in



The actors all fell back and they were laughing

The frame stopped and I started thinking

Will this feel alright with the lights on?

Would it all be right with the lights on?



There is no sign to be discreet

To clutter up the clearings

This is casting out and waiting

Hanging lines to stay up late with



The cold that holds the corner

Cannot be more boring

Startled now that there's all these lights on

God, it pays to be shortsighted



Lily, tell your mother, I've been thinking

Lily, tell your mother, I've been thinking

Lily, tell your mother, I've been thinking

Lily, tell your mother, I've been thinking
