tales tell Eves tears turned to lilies of the valley as she was cast from the Garden of eden
well babe you already know my name
and my tears, oh you’ve seen them

so don’t you go and hang your head
lilly of the valley style
for when i come,
i come to say goodbye

i wanted to give you my life
but babe now i’m scared that you’ll take it
there ain’t a strong bone in my body
and ain’t a gentle one in yours
so when you come on here to greet me
i come on out for one last time

to see you hang your head
lilly of the valley style
for when i come,
i come to say goodbye

and if i cry babe
we’ll have
sweetly scented
bell shaped
goodbyes

for your head to hang
lilly of the valley style
for when i come,
i come to say goodbye
