once upon a time in another world
on a hill that overlooked the sea
there was once a garden of beauty and of grace
lovely as a dream could ever be

then the roses bled and the lilies broke
on the day that death came to the garden
hidden in the flowers, meant to break the heart
flames that burst like blossoms in the garden

can’t you hear the voices from across the sea
calling from the ruins of the garden
calling out to you, calling out to me
save us from the darkness that has fallen
on our lovely garden

name them all by heart, name them one by one
countries where a child has lost tomorrow
count the deadly flowers in the fields and woods
count them like a rosary of sorrow

can’t you hear the voices from across the sea
calling from the ruins of the garden
calling out to you, calling out to me
save us from the darkness that has fallen
on our lovely garden

where the children played in the summer light
running through the flowers on the hill
laughter in their voices, hope within their hearts
knowing they would live forever more

i have seen a child barely five or six
counting bombs and tears, his childhood broken
give him back the garden, give him back his life
give him back a world where love is spoken

let us join our voices far across the sea
singing all together of the garden
let the roses bloom, let the lillies grow
let us live together for the children
in our lovely garden
