I heard someone crying Who, though, could it be? Maybe it was mother Calling out, come see Maybe it was father All alone and lost and cold I heard someone crying Maybe it was me I heard someone singing Who, though could it be? Maybe it was Lily Calling out to me Maybe she's not gone So far away as I've been told I heard someone singing Maybe it was she Maybe it was someone I could Find and have a cup of tea Maybe it was someone who could Bring the tea and come find me I heard someone crying Though I can't say who Someone in this house With nothing left to do Sounded like a father Left alone his love grown cold I heard someone crying Maybe it was you Maybe I was dreaming of a garden growing far below Maybe I was dreaming of a life that I will never know
I heard someone crying, lily, where are you? I'm lost without you Who, tho' could it be? I can't walk these halls without you Someone in this house Lily, where are you? I'm lost without you Whom no one seems to see I have searched the world But you're not there Someone no one seems to come, tell me why you walk these halls Hear, except for me without you if you're not here I heard someone calling my Lily Where are you, I'm lost without you Maybe it was me Lily, I'm lost Without you I heard someone crying Who else could it be? Surely it was Mary Why can no one see? Crying for her mother For the life she's never known So lost see her lying In her room alone
