White Lily/ Walking and Falling live by Laurie Anderson Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2002

[Part 1 – White Lily]
What Fassbinder film is it?
The one-armed man comes into the flower shop and says:
"What flower expresses - days go by
And they just keep going by
Endlessly pulling you
Into the future

Days go by endlessly
Endlessly pulling you
Into the future."

And the florist says:
"White Lily."

[Part 2 – Walking and Falling]
You're walking
And you don't always realize it
But you're always falling
With each step
You fall forward slightly
And then catch yourself
From falling
Over and over
You're falling
And then catching yourself falling
And this is how you can be walking and falling
At the same time
[Part 3 – from Coolsville]
Some things are just pictures
They're scenes before your eyes
Don't look now
I'm right behind you
