Lilly is back

Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
make her go back where she came from
Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
to where she came from
the prospect in the way that she walks,
when she smiles
there is glimmer
much too precious for this dirty old town,
people that frown all day
they where tied down just like me
and even if I'm happy that Lilly is back
I wish I could wave with my arms high
give her a clue - a chance to escape!
before her luggage touches ground

Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
make her go back
where she came from
Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
before she touches ground
Lilly was here before on vacation
a job for a summer season
in a shabby old restaurant    -  italian
that came to be showroom for a first-class
springtime queen
Lilly!!
as Lilly left for the big big wild world
we were all happy-sad
cause the girl just had
enlightened our evenings
dreadlocks in her hair
and the best of opportunities
had become our fortune diplomate

Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
make her go back
where she came from
Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
before she gets grey like us
Lilly is back and I wish I could
send her away
before she touches ground
