Presenting Lily Mars

Presenting Lily Mars - A-Ha

Presenting Lily Mars

Tap dancer a soon-to-be star

She'll beat your heart so fast

Spotlight's on Lily tonight

She's on Channel

One's late night show

She's watching people come and go

Producer says "You've got it made girl"

And when she's lying

Sleepless in his arms

The frost paints roses

On poor Lily's window pane

Presenting Lily's mum

She still lives on in Lily's mind

Stopped ageing years ago

Now she's gone

But left her dreams in Lily's eyes

Lily's wondering if mummy's

Watching her tonight

"Good morning " says father Mars

Presenting a salesman's cheerful face

His mouth is never shut

As he strides from door to

Door to door to door

Watch his face as he

Puts his foot in my door

Presenting Lily Mars

She's sensing moons and stars

The pills that Doc subscribed

Will keep the sleepless

Dreamless nights away

Oh poor Lily

Now you're sleeping day by day

By day by day by day by day

Bye bye

Poor Lily

Mummy's watching you tonight
