Ooooooh, that makes me feel that we're right on track. Usually, she 
either answers the question, or denies it. When the questioner has got 
hold of something important, she talks like that. Do you know where I 
could get of hold of this?

Though I hold for Lily, it might be well to look at other 
possiblities. 

1. He was in love with Narcissa Malfoy, and left b/c Lucius married 
her. :)

2. Petunia Evans? :) Sorry, I can't stop laughing. I'm going to have
