Lilly comes when you stop to call
her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!But when he turned around
He lost what he had found
Oh where can his Lilly be?He searched the city streets
He tempted her with treats
But nobody stopped to taste them
Some are in his pocket
Some are in a locket
He couldn't bring himself to waste them
Ever since she's gone
Some days he can't go on
She ruined for another
Pressed up against the glass
He prays that she will pass
Now he's living with his mother
Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!Lilly comes when you stop to call
her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!When the moon is full

What songs are happening without me?How many hours, how many days
And infinite caresses?How many nights to dream?How many hours, how many days
And infinite caresses?Kono mamade itsu made mo
