Lyrics

Like We Did In The Garden

Cold black coffee, Styrofoam cup
Crumpled up paper that tells me the news
Of war in the East, boys not coming home
Call to the shepherd boys, cry for the sheep

Chorus
Meet me beside the still water
Where the flowers are covered with dew
Meet me and we?ll lie on our backs
And watch the sun turn into the moon

Hard wooden benches, glance at a clock
Eyes of a girl as she waits for a train
She hears bitter words, the breaking of glass
Her life in a suitcase, she?s not going home

Chorus

Out of a lifetime, there?s only five hours
Legs on her bed are the roots of a tree
She?s forgotten my name, but smiles at my face
She squeezes my hand, then she goes to the garden

Bridge

Somewhere where the breezes are colder,
Where nights still means stars that shine on a lake
And the air smells like pine
What we?ve left behind
I?ll meet you there like we did in the Garden

Chorus
