The Garden
[Verse 1]
Here
Where the grass is the tallest
Lilacs all done with their blooming
Keeping your eyes closed to see it

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 3]
Even when daylight was shortest
You were still calling me darling
Lilacs were all overgrown then
There in the garden we wanted
[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 4]
In a year or two
If we find ourselves
Walking through
Minding the old fence
There where the grass is the tallest

[Chorus 2]
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
