Pete Townshend - Pictures of Lily lyrics

rate me

I used to wake up in the morning

I always feel so bad

I got so sick of having sleepless nights

I went and told my dad

He said, "Son now here's some little something"

And stuck them on my wall

And now my nights ain't quite so lonely

In fact I, I don't feel bad at all

I don't feel bad at all

Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful

Pictures of Lily let me sleep at night

Pictures of Lily solved my childhood problems

Pictures of Lily make me feel alright

Pictures of Lily

Pictures of Lily

Pictures of Lily, Lily, oh Lily

Pictures of Lily, Lily, oh Lily

Pictures of Lily

And then one day things weren't so fine

I fell in love with Lily

I asked my dad where Lily I could find

He said, "Son, now don't be silly"

"She's been dead since 1929"

Oh, how I cried that night

If only I'd been born in Lily's time

It would have been alright

Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful

But their was always,

Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night

Pictures of Lily to help me feel alright

Cause me and Lily are together in my dreams

Hey I was wondering mister, have you ever seen

Pictures of Lily?
