Burl Ives - Lily of the Valley lyrics

Burl Ives - Lily of the Valley

I am forever searching high and low

But why does ev'ryone tell me no

Neptune of the seas an answer for me please

The lily of the valley doesn't know

I lie in wait with open eyes

I carry on thru' stormy skies

I follow ev'ry course my kingdom for a horse

But each time I grow old

Serpent of the Nile relieve me for a while

And cast me from your spell and let me go

Messenger from seven seas has flown

To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne

Wars will never cease

Is there time enough for peace ?

The lily of the valley doesn't know
