LILIES
Little things that made her laugh, ways that she came to me
Lilies by her photograph, beauty beyond beauty
Poems on her pillowcase, smiles to bring the dawn in
Pain etched deep within her face, the sorrow, now I mourn
Kindness to all living things, mercy for the broken
Dahlias before diamond rings, love of life unspoken
Lazy walks down mazy lanes, all our leaves were falling
Hazy thoughts, love-crazy brains, memories I recall
That love, that love, stronger than the sun
That love, that love, a love for only one,
My love for you just goes on and on
That love is still this love.
Now my mind's in reverie, here comes our song again
Fire in your eyes for me, feel the passion heal the pain
Heart by heart, and soul by soul you took my rhythm from me
Traded for my stride you stole you burned your love print on me.
That love for me, stronger than the sun
That love for me, love for only one
My love for you just goes on and on
That love will always be this love.
