Song language: English
Waterlily |
| You float like a lily flower |
| And you look just like you fell to earth to sleep |
| And you re waiting for your waking hour |
| And I swear to God I saw an angel hand attend you |
| But that was just the dancing of the light |
| No mortal or immortal did deliver or defend you |
| All hands have forsaken you tonight |
| Are you dreaming of a lover who will carry you away |
| And keep you from the crying of the crowd? |
| No cradle in the rushes, you are broken like the day |
| With darkness all around you like a shroud |
| When they finally surrounded you, did any of them face you? |
| Did you curse the silent stars above? |
| Those cruel arms abandoned you for water to embrace you |
| Won t you lay your head my waterlily love |
| Caught between the air and the windless deep |
| You float like a lily flower |
| And you look just like you fell to earth to sleep |
| And you re waiting for your waking hour |
| And you re waiting for your waking hour |
