The Garden - Basia Bulat

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
