Lyrics The 2Nd Of May - Lillian Axe

The 2Nd Of May

Sweet little babe walked away in the woods and got lost today
No one ever heard her laugh again
Some people say that she fell in the water
But I knew her so well and she was afraid of the sea
Where could she be?
I’ve been drowning in the shallows
And I fade away
When I think of that day
What did she say?
Born on the 2nd of May
Everyone’s child disappeared as she ran to the woods to play
Someone stole a gem beneath our eyes
Some people say that she’s sleeping below us
And some people swear that she flew up to Heaven
But I knew her so well and she was afraid of the dark
Well, I’ve been drowning in the shallows (to be near you)
And, I fade away
When I think of that day
What did she pray?
Lost on the 2nd of May
Some people say that the devil’s among us
But I knew him so well and he is afraid to be seen
I’ve been drowning in the shallows
And I fade away
When I think of that day
What did she say?
Gone on the 2nd of May
I’ve been drowning in the shallows
And I fade away
When I think of that day
What did she pray?
Dead on the 2nd of May
I’ve been drowning in the shallows (to be near you)
