Where, now, is the happiness and laughter that we shared? Gone, like our childhood dreams, aspirations and beliefs -- Time is a thief, and he ravages our gardens, stripping saplings, felling trees, trampling on our flowers, sucking sap and drying seeds. In the midnight candle-light of experience all colour fades, green fingers grey.... Time, alone, shall murder all the flowers, still, there's time to share our plots and all that we call 'ours'. How much worse, then, if we all deny each others' needs and keep our garden's privately? Its getting colder, wind and rain leave gashes; looking back, I only see the friends I've lost. Fires smoulder, raking through the ashes my hands are dirty, my mind is numb, I count the cost of 'I' : "I need to get on, I've got to tend my garden; got to shut you out, no time to crave your pardon now". Now I see the garden that I've grown is just the same as those outside; the fences, erected to protect, simply divide.... There's ruination everywhere, the weather has played havoc with the grass -- does anyone believe his garden's really going to last? In the time allotted us, can any man keep miserly his own? Is there any pleasure in a solitary growth? Come and see my garden if you will ---- I'd like someone to see it all before each root is killed. Surely now its time to open up each life to all ---- tear down the walls, if its not too late! There is so much sorrow in the world; there is so much emptiness and heartbreak and pain; Somewhere on the road we have all taken a wrong turn ---- how can we build the right path again? Through the grief, through the pain, our flowers need each others' rain Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Hesitation, His Best Girl, I Once Wrote Some Poems, I Will Find You, Imperial Walls (Anon 8th Century Saxon), Imperial Walls Anon 8th Century Saxon, Imperial Zeppelin, Imperial Zeppelin Chris Judge Smith, In Slow Time, In The Black Room, In The Black Room Ii, In The End, Incomplete Surrender, Jeunesse Doree, Jeunesse Doree, Just Good Friends, Labour Of Love, Losing Faith In Words, Lost And Found, Magog In Bromine Chambers, Man Erg, Modern, Mr X Gets Tense, My Experience, My Favourite, Nadirs Big Chance, No Moon In The Water, No More, No More The Submariner, Nobodys Business, Not For Keith, Not The Man, Now More Than Ever, Oasis, On The Surface, On Tuesday She Used To Do Yoga, Open Your Eyes The Locarno Song, Ophelia, Out Oyster, Patient, People You Were Going To, Pompeii, Porton Down, Re Awakening, Re-Awakening, Red Shift, Reprise, Rock And Role, Rubicon, Sci Finance, Other Hammill Peter song Lyrics A Louse Is Not A Home Lyrics A Way Out Lyrics Act Five Lyrics Act Four Lyrics Act One Lyrics Act Six Lyrics Act Three Lyrics Act Two Lyrics Again Lyrics Airport Lyrics Alice Letting Go Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Hammond Albert Lyrics Hammond Beres Lyrics Hammond Fred Lyrics Hampton the Hampster Lyrics Hamptons Lyrics Hamptons The Lyrics Hamtaro Lyrics Han van Eijk Lyrics Hancock Herbie Lyrics Hand In Hand For Children Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
