The Blackest Lily Lyrics
I didn't know what the day was
I didn't know what the time it was
I didn't know what my heart would do
I was afraid of nothing
When you called me on the telephoneI was a creature of appetites
And we played a game that you didn't like
There wasn't nothing that I could do
I can be so bad, I can be so bad
They just took it away and they broke it in two
Oh, ohColor my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart
I want it more than I ever knewThe blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you, oh, oh, ohYou were unnervingly delicate
And I had a weakness for etiquette
You laid a trail that led straight to your door, oh
And I could resist but it was hard to ignore, ohColor my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart
I want it more than I ever knewOh, The blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you, oh
The blackest lily, the blackest ponyI didn't know what the day was
I didn't know what the time it was
I didn't know what my heart would doAnd I was afraid of nothing
When you called, called me on the telephoneColor my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart
I want it more than I ever knew, ohOh, the blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from youOh, color my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart
I want it more than I ever knewOh, the blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you, oh
Oh, oh, oh
