Lilly lived by the lake
Where we swam that summer
Lilly sang me a song
As she pulled me under

I knew she was there
When my hand touched her hair

Lilly, oh, Lilly
Who made you cry?
Lilly, oh, Lilly
Why did you die?

Lilly never had a friend
To play with (no one cared)
So Lilly said goodbye
And drowned

I knew she was there
When my hand touched her hair

Lilly, oh, Lilly
Who made you cry?
Lilly, oh, Lilly
Why did you die?
I'll come and play with you
But I just can't stay with you

Lilly, oh, Lilly
Who made you cry?
Lilly, oh, Lilly
Why did you die?
