Lillies Of The Valley (Its A Sad Time) Video (MV)

Lilies of the valley growing in mama's garden
Little dog got injured roving round and fighting
Now he's home with crooked ears and lessons yet unlearned
Mocked by cat birds, eyes cocked to where the road turns
It's tragic how younger sister only lately found her senses
After years of outpatient praying for a lighter sentence
And her brother is a squire to me, finds trouble everywhere he looks
You'd never stone a bluebird for singing from your songbook
Oh, but it's a sad time
Cause my longest night
It never dawned with sunrise
It's a sad time
Though our shadows scatter on the grass
My sorrows have not no grown shorter
It's a sad time
A sad time
Oh, the woman who holds me close is scorned by my heartbeats
Unpersuaded by my fears, brought to tears by my worries
She may not understand me, but at least she is forgiving
What more can you ask a love that's all that makes life worth living
Oh, but it's a sad time
Cause my longest night
Refused to dawn was sunrise
Oh, it's a sad time
You're either waiting round to die
Or trying hard in vain to love life
It's a sad time
It's a sad time
I've never had a day of peace on this godforsaken earth
But the girl I got beside me almost makes my trouble worth it
I ain't got to cure her crazy, she ain't got the cure for mine
We lay together in the dark, she's just trying to ease my worried mind
Oh, it's a sad time
Cause when you try to live for peace
You're thrown into violence
And when you look for solitude
There never is any silence
And when you call out for love
Nobody ever answers
Fear, anger
Thank god for them strangers
Who would want you in spite of everything
Who would touch you in spite of everything
Would you kiss me in spite of everything
I would love you in spite of everything
