Lilywhite Lilith - Genesis, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel

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»

Said if I helped her through she could help me too

But I could see that she was wholly blind

From her pale face and her pale skin

A moonlight shined

Lilywhite Lilith

She gonna take you through the tunnel of night

Lilywhite Lilith

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 cold stone throne

Carved in jade

Lilywhite Lilith

She gonna take you through the tunnel of night

Lilywhite Lilith

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 white light fills the air
