Lili Lyrics

Danish sea and paint on my face

And your sweet kiss on my neck

Falling in love

Still feeling lost

'Cause my hands should be more soft

And I wasn't honest just to break you

And honestly, the truth broke me too

But it's hard when you've never seen this in the movies

And how everything you've ever wanted is just out of reach

And tell your mother all along she had a daughter

And tell your darling to call you Lili

Silk dress on my waist

Now my life is not a waste

And you held my hand through every step of the way

But the tidal waves came rushing through the gates

And washed all your kisses away

But it's hard when you've never seen this in the movies

And how everything you've ever wanted is just out of reach

And tell your mother all along she had a daughter

And tell your darling to call you Lili

To call you Lili

Sidewalk bruise

Still I am your muse

Lost in the map

I'm crying on your lap

'Cause it's hard when you've never seen this in the movies

And how everything you've ever wanted is just out of reach

But it's getting better

'Cause one morning in September

I knew you loved me

The first time you called me Lili

The first time you called me Lili
