Deep in the moonlight, br Stood a lily so white. br Blue and black the sky, br With tears that held a story behind br And with whispers she sighs, br The whir of a sober girl br Is sadder than any words. br br Deep in the mellow br Stood a sunflower so yellow br Blue and white the sky, br With voice that held a story behind br And with whispers she sighs, br The whir of a sober girl br Is sadder than any words. br br Deep in the cave, br Stood a fern so brave br Black and black only the sky br With feelings that held a story behind br And with whispers she sighs, br The whir of a sober girl br Is sadder than any words.
