12.Lilywhite Lilith
Lyrics:Phil Collins
Music:Phil Collins
The chamber was in confusion-all the voices shouting loud
I could only just hear a voice quite near say, 'Please help
me through the crowd'
I said if I helped her through she could help me too, but I
could see that she was wholly blind
But from her pale face and her pale skin, a moonlight shined
Lilywhite Lillith
She gonna lead you thru' the tunnel of night
Lilywhite Lillith
She gonna lead you right
When I'd led her through the people, the angry noise began to
grow
She said, 'Let me feel the way the breezes blow and I'll show
you
where to go'
So I followed her into a big round cave, she said 'They're
coming for
you, now don't be afraid
Then she sat me down on a stone cold throne, carved in jade
Lilywhite Lillith
She gonna lead you thru' the tunnel of night
Lilywhite Lillith
She gonna lead you right
She leaves me in my darkness
I have to face, face my fear
And the darkness closes in on me
I can hear a whirring sound growing near
i can see the corner of the tunnel
Lit up by whatever's coming here
Two golden globes float into the room
And a blaze of light fills the air
