Dark Garden

There's a place that I've never been.
Just a place that I think I've seen.
Well it's more like a feeling of being alone,
With some belonging to the unknown.
It's like a pool on the ground of bluebell flowers,
Or the underside of a leaf in a soft rain shower.
Oh take me to your dark garden,
And wrap me in velvet leaves.
Take me to your dark garden,
I dare say I'll never leave.
Oh I see a stone in the dappled sun,
And it's beckoning to me, it wants me to come.
Well I'm sure it's a doorway to that other place,
If I cross that threshold I'll leave without a trace.
And just like that, the moment's gone,
And I don't remember the feeling,
Or know what's going on.
Oh take me to your dark garden,
And wrap me in velvet leaves.
Take me to your dark garden,
I dare say I'll never leave.
When woods are wild they lure me in,
There's a light upon my eye and a shiver on my skin.
Oh I see a shadow behind a tree,
And there's something in the darkness that I can't quite see.
If I reach inside will it pull me in?
Is this the start of something?
Are we ready to begin? To begin...
Oh take me to your dark garden,
And wrap me in velvet leaves.
Take me to your dark garden,
I dare say I'll never leave.
Oh take me to your dark garden,
And wrap me in velvet leaves.
Take me to your dark garden,
I dare say I'll never leave.
Oh I'll never leave... I'll never leave.

Thinking About You

Candlelight. Is it alright to feel this much warmth in the room?
Glass of wine. I'm sure it's fine to stay a little longer with you.
You might not think it, but I'm crying on the inside.
You might not think it, but I'm running out of time.
You might not see it, but things aren't all that perfect, no.
And you might not think it, but I'm thinking about you all of the time.
And you'll tell me it cannot be.
'Cause there's nothing left for you to offer me.
And I'll tell you I'll see it through.
'Cause there's nothing I need now apart from you.
You might not think it, but I'm crying on the inside.
You might not think it, but I'm running out of time.
You might not see it, but things aren't all that perfect, no.
And you might not think it, but I'm thinking about you all of the time.
Well I'm thinking about you all of the time.
Yeah I'm thinking about you all of the time.
Spindle leaves. Someone grieves.
But we're playing quietly beneath the trees.
Tall shadows. Someone knows.
Let's take the low road and get home before it snows.
You might not think it, but I'm crying on the inside.
You might not think it, but I'm running out of time.
You might not see it, but things aren't all that perfect, no.
And you might not think it, but I'm thinking about you all of the time.
Thinking about you all of the time..... all of the time...
