The Blackest Lily

The Blackest Lily - Corinne Bailey Rae

I didn't know what the day was

I didn't know what the time it was

I didn't know what my heart would do

I was afraid of nothing

When you called

Me on the telephone

I was a creature of appetites

And we played a game that you didn't like

There wasn't nothing that I could do

I can be so bad I can be so bad

They just took it away and they broke it in

Two

Oh oh

Color my heart color my heart

Make it restart make it restart

Color my heart

I want it more than I ever knew

The blackest lily the blackest pony

Won't protect my heart from you

Oh oh

You were unnervingly delicate

And I had a weakness for etiquette

You laid a trail that led straight to your door

Oh

And I could resist but it was hard to ignore

Oh oh

Color my heart color my heart

Make it restart make it restart

Color my heart

I want it more than I ever knew

Oh

The blackest lily the blackest pony

Won't protect my heart from you

Oh oh

I didn't know what the day was

I didn't know what the time it was

I didn't know what my heart would do

And I was afraid of nothing

When you called called me on the telephone

Color my heart color my heart

Make it restart make it restart

Color my heart

I want it more than I ever knew

Oh

The blackest lily the blackest pony

Won't protect my heart from you

Oh color my heart color my heart

Make it restart make it restart

Color my heart

I want it more than I ever knew

Oh

The blackest lily the blackest pony

Won't protect my heart from you

Oh oh

Oh oh

Oh oh

Oh oh
