The Garden

Here
Where the grass is the tallest
Lilacs all done with their blooming
Keeping your eyes closed to see it
Here
In the garden we wanted
In our dream
We might not know
Walking through
Minding the old fence
On the edge of an ocean
We won’t look back
And if we don’t, we won’t be lost
I won’t look back
I know I won’t
I know I won’t be lost
Even when daylight was shortest
You were still calling me darling
Lilacs were all overgrown then
There in the garden we wanted
In a year or two
If we find ourselves
Walking through
Minding the old fence
There where the grass is the tallest
We won’t look back
We won’t be lost
We won’t look back, and if we don’t
We won’t be lost
Oh, don’t look back
And if you don’t, you won’t be lost
I won’t look back
I know I won’t
I know I won’t be lost
