Whose garden was this
It must have been lovely
Did it have flowers
Ive seen pictures of flowers
And I'd love to have smelled one
Whose river was this
You say it ran freely
Blue was its colour
And I've seen blue in some pictures
And I'd love to have been there
Tell me again, I need to know
The forest had trees, the meadows were green
The oceans were blue
And birds really flew
Can you swear it was true
Whose grey sky is this
Or was it a blue one
You say they were breezes
I've heard records of breezes
And I'd love to have felt one
Tell me again, I need to know
The forest had trees, the meadows were green
The oceans were blue
And birds really flew
Can you swear that its true
Whose garden was this
It must have been lovely
Did it have flowers
I've seen pictures of flowers
And I'd love to have smelled one
