Midnight In The Garden

Kershaw Lily

i woke to your goodbye
the golden sun was in my eyes
i thought i'd be first to leave
and that i'd brought you life
half-awake, your soul afraid to take
it's midnight in the garden
and this love you cannot fake

it was in your eye
there was no need to answer why
we were born to run
you said, "hey kid we had some fun."
but now the dell has flown
and there's no god to take us home
it's midnight in the garden
and i find myself alone

the dust has settled since you left
but my heart hasn't mended yet
and the night promises to be long
truth was unveiled by time
they come from the same bloodline
and what i did to be kept was wrong, wrong

it's midnight in the garden
and i find myself alone
