What is the name of a plant that has pink amaryllis-like flowers but the leaves emerge after the flower stalk?



The flower stalk/flowers and leaves resemble amaryllis. However, the leaves appear at diff times from the flowers. Can someone help ID this plant for me?

I have these flowers in my yard. I don't know the botanical name for them but I call them Surprise Lillies. Some people call them Resurection Lillies. The green leaves pop up in the early spring then die off. Later in the summer long stems shoot up and have light pink flowers on them. Hince the name Surprise!!!
