Pictures Of Lily (Pete Townshend Demo / New 2018 Mix)

I used to wake up in the morning
I always feel so glad
I got so sick of having sleepless nights
I went and told my dad

He said, "Son, now here's some little somethings"
And stuck them on my wall
And now my nights ain't quite so lonely
In fact I don't feel bad at all (I don't feel bad at all)

Pictures of Lily that make my life so wonderful
Pictures of Lily that let me sleep at night
Pictures of Lily that solved my childhood problem
Pictures of Lily, they make me feel alright

Pictures of Lily (pictures of Lily)
Pictures of Lily (Lily, oh Lily)
Pictures of Lily (Lily, oh Lily)
Pictures of Lily (pictures of Lily)
Pictures of Lily, pictures of Lily
Pictures of Lily, pictures of Lily

And then one day things weren't so fine
I fell in love with Lily
I asked my dad where Lily I could find
He said, "Don't be silly"

"She's been dead since 1929"
Oh, how I cried that night
If only I'd been born in Lily's time
It would have been alright
There were always pictures of Lily to help me sleep at night
Pictures of Lily to help me feel alright

'Cause me and Lily are together in my dreams (my mind)
And I was wonderin', mister, have you ever seen?

Pictures of Lily to help you sleep at night
Pictures of Lily to help you feel alright

'Cause me and Lily are together in my dreams
And I was wonderin', mister, have you ever seen
Pictures of Lily?
