So Long Garden Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh you never love the land, the way the land loves you
Feeding and holding and giving us life
We cut her and we drink her dry, leave her bones to
the rainless sky
Earth turns to carrion, no one knows why
For so long and endless stream, so long Garden Dream
It's over now unless we open our eyes
Chorus:
Oh Garden Dream I hope you'll never die
Let tomorrow rain
Leave us here to build this life
And to love this place again
Everywhere are dying lakes, every man's mistake
Pouring in poison, drying up love
I want to lay me down on the pulsing ground
Earth in my arteries flowing like blood
Chorus
For so long an endless stream, so long Garden Dream
It's over now unless we open our eyes
Oh Garden Dream I hope you'll never die
Let tomorrow rain
Leave us here to build this life
And to love again
For so long an endless stream, so long Garden Dream
For so long an endless stream, so long Garden Dream
For so long an endless stream, so long Garden Dream
It's over now unless we open our eyes
Oh what a lonely, lonely, lonely, lovely, lovely light
