Pictures of Lily

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I used to wake up in the morning I used to feel so bad I got so sick of having sleepless nights I went and told my dad He said, "Son, now, here's some little somethings" And stuck them on my wall And now my nights ain't quite so lonely In fact I, I don't feel bad at all I don't feel bad at all [Chorus 1] Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night Pictures of Lily solved my childhood problems Pictures of Lily helped me feel alright [Bridge] Pictures of Lily Lily, oh Lily Lily, oh Lily Pictures of Lily [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] And then one day, things weren't quite so fine I fell in love with Lily I asked my dad where Lily I could find He said, "Son, now don't be silly She's been dead since 1929" Oh, how I cried that night If only I'd been born in Lily's time It would have been alright [Chorus 2] Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night For me and Lily are together in my dreams And I ask you, "Hey mister, have you ever seen [Outro] Pictures of Lily?"
