lyrics

Oh, was this love all in vain
In my search of immortality
Cause I thought that
you were meant to be my man.

Funny how I would go back in time
Just to lay down by your soul again.
I can't understand that it's the end
Of what we could have been.

I will lie down in the garden
My treasure, my heirloom,
I'll rest my head in the garden
Where the flowers ceased to bloom.

Gonna lay myself down,
Lay myself down,
Lay myself down in the garden.

Was all of this imagination
What I felt when you
Had faith in me?
Cause I thought
that you would ease the pain
And just be my man

I will lie down in the garden,
My treasure, my heirloom.
I'll rest my head in the garden
Where flowers cease to bloom.

Why did I deserve such treason?
And why is my heart now so insecure?
I was sowing seeds for you in our garden,
While you were sharing it with another.
