《The Water Lily》歌词

[00:00:00] The Water Lily - Jennifer Murphy Rum/Rum Corps Orchestra/Brett Weymark

[00:00:08] A lonely young wife in her dreaming discerns

[00:00:14] A lily decked pool with a border of ferns

[00:00:19] And a beautiful child with butterfly wings

[00:00:25] Drifts down to the edge of the water and sings

[00:00:32] Come mama come quick follow me

[00:00:37] Step out on the leaves of the water lily

[00:00:44] And the lonely young wife her heart beating wild

[00:00:48] Cries wait till I come till I reach you my child

[00:00:54] But the beautiful child with butterfly wings

[00:01:01] Steps out on the leaves of the lily and sings

[00:01:07] Come mama come quick follow me

[00:01:13] And step on the leaves of the water lily

[00:01:20] And the wife in her dreaming steps out on the stream

[00:01:25] But the lily leaves sink and she wakes from her dream

[00:01:29] Oh the waking is sad for the tears that it brings

[00:01:33] And she knows its her dead baby's spirit that sings
