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--
