The Lily That Never Bloomed

You were planted by the window Little pot Big dream I watched you reach for mornings That never quite turned green You're the lily that never bloomed Still I saved you all this room On my sill By my spoon We grew old in the same small gloom Oh Lily that never bloomed You were my unfinished June I talked to you at midnight Spilled my secrets in the steam You answered back in silence But you brightened up the seam You're the lily that never bloomed Still I saved you all this room On my sill By my spoon We grew old in the same small gloom Oh Lily that never bloomed You were my unfinished June Maybe not every seed Is meant to split and show Some hearts stay underneath Just needing time to grow (mmm) You're the lily that never bloomed Still I saved you all this room Every year Same quiet tune Me and you and a slant of noon Oh Lily that never bloomed I guess I'm a little like you Track from the album "Black Swan"
