Lyrics
Lillian
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They criticise me for loving you, for seeing you
Giving no reason, they don't know you Lillian
Be a mystic figure, shed your feelings from within
Let it go unnoticed where you've been Lillian
So take from me what I have to give
For I have taken from you
The crystal world in which you live
Shall fall and tumble too
Let me see, set you free
From the life you live
You have shared, Lillian
I know not why you want me
But I know why I want you
I don't need a reason
It's just you, Lillian
So take from me what I have to give
For I have taken from you
The crystal world in which you live
Shall fall and tumble too
And let you see, set you free
From the life you live
You have shared, Lillian
Lillian, Lillian
