The Fall Lyrics

Black Lillies The Fall

I am not a rich man, have no fortune but bare
I was born in desert, my flower is so rare

I am not a rich girl, I have no diamonds to share
I was born on the ocean, a thousand stars I wear

I am not a sailor, I am no captain at sea
I was born in the desert, my captain I'll not be
My captain I'll not be

I was born on the water, father sent me ocean wide
Burden, my mother, sail along with the tide
Sail with the tide

I am but a dreamer, I've seen you in between
Shadows and the sunshine, falling down on me
Falling down on me

Would you be my lover? Forgave you all my hand
Flowers from the desert, girl from the ocean sand
From the ocean sand

And I'll love you in the springtime
I'll love you through the fall
Hold your hand in the cold and rain
The first snowflakes fall
The snowflakes fall

I am but a dreamer, I've seen you in between
The shadows and sunshine, falling down on me
Falling down on me.
