I heard someone crying
Who, though, could it be?
Maybe it was mother
Calling out, come see
Maybe it was father
All alone and lost and cold
I heard someone crying
Maybe it was me

I heard someone singing
Who, though could it be?
Maybe it was Lily
Calling out to me
Maybe she's not gone
So far away as I've been told
I heard someone singing
Maybe it was she

Maybe it was someone I could
Find and have a cup of tea
Maybe it was someone who could
Bring the tea and come find me

I heard someone crying
Though I can't say who
Someone in this house
With nothing left to do
Sounded like a father
Left alone his love grown cold
I heard someone crying
Maybe it was you

Maybe I was dreaming of a garden growing far below
Maybe I was dreaming of a life that I will never know

I heard someone crying, lily, where are you? I'm lost without you
Who, tho' could it be? I can't walk these halls without you

Someone in this house Lily, where are you? I'm lost without you
Whom no one seems to see I have searched the world
But you're not there
Someone no one seems to come, tell me why you
Hear, except for me without you brought me home if you're not here

I heard someone calling my Lily
Where are you, I'm lost without you
Maybe it was he Lily, I'm lost
Without you

I heard someone crying
Who else could it be?
Surely it was Mary
Why can no one see?

Crying for her mother
For the life she's never known
So lost see her lying
In her room alone
