The Garden -

I woke up one morning

To a crystal castle, all alone--

Looked outside, and there lay before me

A garden of dreams all my own--

Barefoot I walked by it’s sparkling stream

Smiled to the fish swimming there--

Said «Hello» to the frog on his rock

Flew with the birds in the air--

Each man builds his own garden

By what his heart says is true--

And mine is so very special to me

Can I trust it with you--

Well my love, here’s the key to the garden

Tread soft as you travel it’s lands--

Walk with bare feet, say «Hello» to the frog

And drink from the stream with your hands--

I remember you smiled and said

«You know, I’ve seen this before»

And the wind sang a love song so sweet--

The flowers bowed down their heads as you passed

And the grass sparkled under your feet--

Each man builds his own garden

By what his heart says is true--

And mine is so very special to me

But it seems I can share it with you--

We reached the end of the garden

You said «You know, this will work out just fine»

«The reason it seemed so familiar to me

Is that yours is built right next to mine.»

«Together we’ve built the same garden

The very same stream running through--

And I think the walls between us should fall

So that there’ll be one garden for two.»

Each man builds his own garden

By what his heart says is true--

And I thank the stars that watch over me

Because ours is a garden for two--

Ours is a garden for two--
