-
I used to wake up in the mornings,
I used to 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.
CHORUS
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful,
Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night.
Pictures of Lily solved my childhood problems,
Pictures of Lily helped me feel all right.
Pictures of Lily, lily of lilies,
Lily, oh Lily, pictures of Lily.
And then one day things weren’t quite 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 Nineteen Twenty-Nine.
Oh, how I cried that night!
If only I’d been born in Lily’s time,
It would have been all right.
CHORUS
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful,
Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night.
For me and Lily are together in my dreams,
And I ask you, hey Mister, have you ever seen
