letra de old things in the garden - polly bessette

[verse 1]
soft spoken man feels the earth again
eggsh-lls and onion skinned
and the jars that bleed from the august heat
when the warm air sours them

[chorus]
can’t take the garden out of him or out of me
old things will last or die but nothing’s gonna leave

[verse 2]
saw the playful son in the attic run
with a sunbeam on his head
holding ocean sh-lls to his ears to tell
how the creatures used to live

[chorus]
can’t take the garden out of him or out of me
old things will last or die but nothing’s gonna leave

[verse 3]
in the sketching room lie the notebook tunes
as they fill with birds and dreams
there’s an echo too like a c-ckatoo
ran its feathers on the seams
[chorus]
can’t take the garden out of him or out of me
old things will last or die but nothing’s gonna leave

[verse 4]
when the house sinks down many years from now
from the wearing of its spine
he will still believe that the rocks beneath
are the shelter for our minds

[chorus]
can’t take the garden out of him or out of me
old things will last or die but nothing’s gonna leave

[verse 5]
when her organs failed only one prevailed
it’s recorded on the tape
may she rest in bliss lovely organist
playing hymns at heavens gate

[outro]
can’t take the garden out of her
can’t take the garden out of me
can’t take the garden out of us
can’t take the garden
the garden
