Lilly by TENTS Lyrics

The bright eyed keeper
Sits on the bed and coos
The light gets deeper
I am in the pews

Imaginary daughter
Fades out, reappears
A splash in the water
A bout with ancient fear

But baby I could blunder
I’m a stubborn old grouch, it’s true
But the spell I’m under
Lilly in the desert, bloom!

In my butterfly belly
Logic is not the truth
Though in my twenties I contended
I could not prove

But baby I could blunder
I hear what I wanna hear
And baby, I’m a runner
Got a lot to lose
Maybe there’s a difference
Maybe there’s a point of view
We can drink the cool water
Lilly in the desert, bloom!
