Lilah - Don Henley
[00:27.14
Like every young man, I had some things
That I wanted to say
Ere I could begin, you know the world got
In my way
[01:19.71
[01:25.18
[01:30.18
We spend so much time weeping
And wailing and shaking our fists
Creating enemies that really don't exist
All these comings and goings that cut like a knife
These small, simple pleasures that make up a life
A man needs a home, and a child, and a wife
To always be there-always
After I'm gone, there are some things that I know
I will miss
Taste of your mouth; the smell of the perfume
On your wrist
Oh, Lilah, the fields lie fallow
[02:54.24
Oh Lilah The river's still shallow
But the river's bed is dark and deep
Oh Lilah, the fields lie fallow
Oh Lilah, this ground we hallow
Is ours to tend, but not to keep
[03:45.32
[03:49.97
Now, while all the streets are silent
Take my hand and come away
