lily of the valley

I can hear the storm
Skeletons of trees
Reach out for my window
You sleep next to me

Winds are picking up
But you bring me peace
Underneath the sheets
It's cold in Tennessee

You're sweet like rosemary
You're everybody's dream
You've grown your roots so deep
But you don't make me weak
And I think I need
Something more deadly
You're sweet like rosemary
But he's lily of the valley

I want you to grow strong
It won't be easy
When you face the rain
Oh I hate to leave

But I need a love that kills
So I will set you free
I'm always caught between
Loving and hating

You're sweet like rosemary
You're everybody's dream
You've grown your roots so deep
I hate to make you grieve
But I think I need
Something more deadly
You're sweet like rosemary
But he's lily of the valley

You feel like stability
But he loves me dangerously
I'd rather he poisoned me
