Lyrics

"The Garden"

I used to lay on the bench and watch the sky
And notice the scents of the lake and the grass nearby
And I’d bask in the warmth of the sun and close my eyes
Feeling the world around me

You see now, I barely take slow-walks on the street
Rarely have time to blow dandelion seeds, I keep
Failing to stop and catch my breath so deep

When life gets hard and takes all my strength
I long for the place I used to go
Where time never seemed to end

Oh, bring me back to the garden
Where the clouds float by so peacefully
Where my tired heart rests easily
Bring me back to the garden

I’m scared cuz I’m in a different place than I’d planned
I have my goals, but I doubt that I have my place to land
I can keep trying but I’m not a superman

When life gets hard and takes all my strength
I long for the place I used to go
Where time never seemed to end

Oh, bring me back to the garden
Where the clouds float by so peacefully
Where my tired heart rests easily
Bring me back to the garden
Where my tired heart rests easily
It’s the place I’d be so cheerfully
Bring me back to the garden
Bring me back to that garden
