lily of the valley Lyrics

I can hear the storm

Skeletons of trees

Reach out for my window

You sleep next to me

Winds are picking up

But you bring me peace

Underneath the sheets

It's cold in Tennessee

You're sweet like rosemary

You're everybody's dream

You've grown your roots so deep

But you don't make me weak

And I think I need

Something more deadly

You're sweet like rosemary

But he's lily of the valley

I want you to grow strong

It won't be easy

When you face the rain

Oh I hate to leave

But I need a love that kills

So I will set you free

I'm always caught between

Loving and hating

You're sweet like rosemary

You're everybody's dream

You've grown your roots so deep

I hate to make you grieve

But I think I need

Something more deadly

You're sweet like rosemary

But he's lily of the valley

You feel like stability

But he loves me dangerously

I'd rather he poisoned me
