I was looking down the road at Lily Hundred miles past the end of the highway In my mind their leaves were all swaying together Their feet down under the water And I wanted a chorus to join in Lay my mind under that cottonwood line But Lily farming a riddle for my mind The one place that I thought I could try I was looking down that straightaway Cutting the horizon sight Swear I walked the new world Down that four corner line So I followed that soft illusion Clear in the clean air Daylight on my side And Lily farming a riddle for my mind The one place that I thought I could try She guards the stairway that would take me up and out Lily's dancing on the skyline
