Sleeping in the Garden

We were young back then,

Pretending stars were city lights,

Hiding in the forest at the dead of night,

You were scared to death and I learned to put my heart on ice,

If I knew what I know,

If I knew what I know,

If I knew what I know,

Come on golden goddess wherever you are,

Lights are so damn bright that I can’t see the stars,

What I’d do for one more evening on the farm,

And I dreamt that we were sleeping in the garden,

And I dreamt that we were sleeping in the garden,

And I dreamt that we were sleeping in the garden,

She said meet me in the parlor,

I was lost,

I was a goner,

You were stuck on something heavy,

And my mind was going wild,

You can swim down to the bottom til your face is caked in filth,

And I’ll be waiting here forever,

In the garden with my guilt.

She said meet me in the parlor,

I was lost,

I was a goner,

You were stuck on something heavy,

And my mind was going wild,

You can swim down to the bottom til your lungs are full of shit,

And I’ll be waiting in the garden with a heart that never quits.
