One found out
All of the sudden
What was going on
And this made you mad
And you said, "I'm not gonna do this anymore
Well, I can't live like this"

She was a lily girl
Not made for this world
Veiled eyes covering nights of tears, nights of tears
Like the blue, blue water in the crystal fountains
Well, I, I simply could not believe it
One found out
All of the sudden

We don't have so very much in common
You don't have very much to say
So you tell me what it is that you are wanting
You just look at me with those sighs and say nothing

And we don't talk to each other
Every day
In fact, sometimes weeks go by
And we don't speak

And then something in the mail comes 
She goes a little bit into shock 
It says, "I'll see you tomorrow night, baby" 
Oh, it's bad, something's gotta go wrong, I know

She was a lily girl
Not made for this world
Veiled eyes covering night of tears
Night of tears

We don't talk to each other 
Every day 
In fact, sometimes weeks go by 
We don't speak

We don't have very much in common
And we don't have very much to say 
Would you just tell me what it is that you're wanting from me? 
You just look at me with those eyes 
And you say nothing

One found out
All of the sudden
What was going on

She was a lily girl
Not made for this world

We found out
All of the sudden
What was going on
What made you mad when you said,
"We don't have so very much in common anyway"
And you don't have anything else to say

We don't talk to each other
Every day, no
Sometimes we don't talk for weeks
And weeks go by
We don't speak

Just everything about this is just too good to be true
Something's going to go wrong, I know

And you wake up in the middle of the night
It was just a bad dream, baby
No, it was a nightmare
And it started a fight
It was a bad dream, baby

She was a lily girl
