Lyrics Marissa Nadler

Marissa Nadler

Lily, Henry, And The Willow Trees

Lily was a maiden in the castle sea

They found her in the forest

Where the wild willows be

Lily was a maiden in the castle sea

They found her in the forest

Where the wild willows be

Singing, Don't bring me more

(Grass?) is ruining us all

Singing, Don't bring me more

Forever sees you in the snow

Henry first saw Lilianne

(Gold of?) coloured hair

(A-sting?) by the river

With the willows in her hair

Lily on the tune

And knew a shanty from the sea

He seized her by her little waist

Against the willow tree

Singing fairly, Oh well

Where you gone, no one can tell

Singing fairly, Oh well

Where you gone, no one can tell

Oh, you are worth a million silver pennies

Henry said to Lilianne

Oh, you are worth a million silver pennies

Henry said to Lilianne
