The Blackest Lily
Corinne Bailey Rae
I didn't know what the day was
I didn't know what time it was
I didn't know what my heart would do
I was afraid of nothing when you called me on the telephone
I was creature of appetites
We played a game that you didn't like
There wasn't nothing that I couldn't do
I can be so bad,
I can be so bad
just took it away and we broke it in two
Color my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart, I want it more than I ever knew
The blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you
You were unnerving and delicate
And I weakness for etiquette
You laid a trail that led straight to your door
And I could resist but it was hard to endure
Color my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart, I want it more than I ever knew
The blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you
I didn't know what the day it was
I didn't know what the time it was
I didn't know what my heart would do
And I was afraid of nothing when you called me on the telephone
Color my heart, color my heart
Make it restart, make it restart
Color my heart, I want it more than I ever knew
The blackest lily, the blackest pony
Won't protect my heart from you
