Lily Of The Valley

I am forever searching high and low

But why does everybody tell me no

Neptune of the seas have you an answer for me please

The lily of the valley doesn't know



I lie in wait with open eyes

I carry on through stormy skies

I follow every course

My kingdom for a horse

But each time I grow old

Serpent of the Nile

Relieve me for a while

And cast me from your spell - let me go



Messenger from seven seas has flown

To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne

Wars will never cease

Is there time enough for peace

But the lily of the valley doesn't grow
