Lyrics
Yellow butterfly, fly so free
You may not see the net that takes you down.
Daddy Longlegs too, they may find you and pull your legs, to watch the suffering.
When I was just a little girl I thought that I would rule the world
A gallant thought that slowly rode away
A perfect world, a gentle path, a day where we all sing a laugh
...time to fly away
But there is danger in the garden
Danger in the garden mama, warn your sons and daughter's about that danger. x2
In the garden. Oh in that garden.
Woman with a view, I found a way.
The sun would guide me, since you wouldn't say.
Changing with the moon. The nights were long, but I grew stronger
And I was alone.
There is a power in this soul I worked so hard to find again, I knew it when I was a girl... but I forgot it for awhile
A perfect world, a gentle path, a day where we all sing and laugh, time to fly away...
But there is danger in the garden, danger in the garden, mama warn your sons and daughters 'bout that danger x2.
In the garden. Oh in that garden.
THere is a power in this sould I worked so hard to find again
I knew is when I was a girl, but I forgot it for awhil
A perfect world, a gentle path, a day where we all sing and laugh, ftime to fly away.
But there is danger in the garden, danger in the garden mama, warn your sons and daughter 'bout that danger x2
In the garden, oh in that garden, yeah in that garden.
