lyrics

Lily waits down by the park
To come up pink when the moon grows dark
And shine a light on every broken heart
Lily floats when you fall apart

She says,
"Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Go and grow"

Lily love will get her bees on the ground
She'll take that honey and she'll lay it down
Lily, keep that bee from flying away
Tuck him into a daisy chain

And tell him,
"Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Go and grow"

We're always on the run from the brightest change
You'll make the same mistake but who will you blame?
Well, you were flying high- built your nest in the sky
And then I came along with my bow & arrow...

Lily wakes when the fruit is here
Air is clean and the water clear
Lily love will keep it hangin' around
Grab that tree and shake it on down

And then
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Go and grow
And grow
