cheryl frances-hoad - lily maynard lyrics
come on lily
let’s go walking
let’s talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
show us where you found him
in the hedge bottom; he was cowering
lily, wasn’t he? cowering, lily
but you coaxed him from the greenery
loved him, taught him how not to cower
lily, didn’t you? he was smiling
come on, lily
let’s go walking
let’s talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
show us where you walked together
by the meadows. he held your hand
lily, didn’t he? holding, lily
and the sun that spring was amazing
heating up the air something magical
lily, didn’t it? he was singing
come on, lily
let’s go walking
let’s talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
show us the letter they sent him
dragged him over to france
lily, didn’t they? dragging, lily?
and you pictured him in a deep trench
cowering and crying like a baby
lily, didn’t you? he was weeping
come on, lily
let’s go walking
we’ll talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
show us his last letter, unfold it
carefully along the creases
lily, won’t you? carefully, lily
he writes of the wide sky and the stars
and the sunrise like fire
lily, doesn’t he? he is shining
come on, lily
let’s go walking
we’ll talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
show us the past now, hold it
tightly along its faultlines
lily, can’t you? tightly, lily
your life has been waiting for him
and the clock stayed silent
lily, didn’t it? time is broken
come on, lily
let’s go walking
we’ll talk as we’re walking
and pretend you’re young again
lily
