The 2Nd Of May - Lillian Axe

Sweet little babe walked away in the woods and got lost today

No one ever heard her laugh again

Some people say that she fell in the water

But I knew her so well and she was afraid of the sea

Where could she be?

I’ve been drowning in the shallows

And I fade away

When I think of that day

What did she say?

Born on the 2nd of May

Everyone’s child disappeared as she ran to the woods to play

Someone stole a gem beneath our eyes

Some people say that she’s sleeping below us

And some people swear that she flew up to Heaven

But I knew her so well and she was afraid of the dark

Well, I’ve been drowning in the shallows (to be near you)

And, I fade away

When I think of that day

What did she pray?

Lost on the 2nd of May

Some people say that the devil’s among us

But I knew him so well and he is afraid to be seen

I’ve been drowning in the shallows

And I fade away

When I think of that day

What did she say?

Gone on the 2nd of May

I’ve been drowning in the shallows

And I fade away

When I think of that day

What did she pray?

Dead on the 2nd of May

I’ve been drowning in the shallows (to be near you)
