lyrics

DARK BACK GARDEN

Walk down to the crystal fountain,
Drink a glass of sweet rose wine
Crushed with dew and drunk with memory
Of the night that you were mine

Come down to the dark back garden,
Walk down to the rocky creek
Said the figure to the other,
Screamed the mouthpiece to the meek

And the crimson well sprung forth,
And the water it poured out
Dripping salt and spitting language
While the stones cut under foot

In the garden lined with pride,
In the garden lined with pride
Grows a sweet rose drunk with memory
Of where you held me while I cried

In the garden screamed the animals,
Drenched with dew and desperate cried
Words of jealousy and terror
That a savage never lied

And the tangled hand reached up,
And the clenched teeth bit down
On the rusty taste of thunder
That spat you lightening to the ground

In the garden lined with pride,
In the garden lined with pride
Grows a sweet rose drunk with memory
Of where you held me while I cried
