Текст Paris Paloma — Lily Rice

Lily Rice, she fell in the snow
Paralysed she called out for home
The blood ran and it stained all the powder
But alas, was too late when they found her

Lily Rice, so she died alone
Her mother cried because she didn’t know
She was alive in a different way
Oh Lily Rice, something else she became

«Sweet darling child
Open your eyes and see what you were meant to be
Do you ever wonder why your mother gave that name to you?
Lily Rice, cold and sweet
Just like the snow beneath your feet
Don’t you know, dear?
You were destined to be sent here by the moon»

Lily Rice, oh when she awoke
Saw a face looking out of the snow
Frosted hair and eyelashes of ice
And they said «Welcome home, Lily Rice

From long ago, do you remember me?
As the voice from out the evergreen
In the woods in the depths of December
Seek your mind, child, and you’ll remember

You had wanted to follow the voice but
It was not yet time for you to join us
But now, the time it is here
Take my hand and follow me, dear»

«Come, now my Queen
For so long we thought you had been lost
It was I, I was the voice from your childhood that came from the frost
It was foretold you’d returned to us out of the snow
Oh, Lily Rice, don’t you know?
You were sent here by the moon»

Lily Rice she took their cold hand
And they walked with the creatures who sang
Haunting songs that she did recall
From long ago, way before she was born

They arrived in the depths of the forest
And they crowned her in mistletoe and hollies
Lily Rice she climbed up to her throne
Made of tree roots, all covered in snow

«She has returned just as was said in that old prophecy
For one hundred years we did wonder if it was true
Rejoice, rejoice! We look upon the fair face of our queen
Our majesty Lily Rice who was sent here by the moon»
«Sweet darling child
Open your eyes and see what you were meant to be
Do you ever wonder why your mother gave that name to you?
Lily Rice, cold and sweet
Just like the snow beneath your feet
Don’t you know, dear?
You were destined to be sent here by the moon»
