Blanco White - The Lily
текст песни

I left a sign with a candle in the streetlight that shone below, where through the night the people dance in linen and smoke
I still remember her song in my head, each palm in time, Every face in that light, as their mouths bellowed

Now they tell me she's just vanished, some other place by the sea
But to me she was banished, by herself not by me
cnd though I still remember, the streetlights are low, now dull in the night and the dance has gone quiet, but the sea still bellows

See the island on fire, and the towers align; Built in silos of sea underneath every street
Lily spoke of a city's bones, an ancient rubble of time and stone, where the walls tremor under the sky, covered day after day by the tide, could I save them if I tried? If only I could

We shine our light across the ocean, a Troy this city has burned
We shine our light across the ocean, a fire on ships will return, we shine our light
