D Winter's hard to /] rhyme
We're prisoners in some /] icy panto-/]-mime
Just waiting for the wind to change his x3x031 mind
And sing us green
April starts to whisper to the trees
I hoe and you plant the peas
Canterbury Bells begin to ring
The sparrows are stealing string
Highocks and foxglove to the knee
Now life's a major key
We've got mud between our toes
This is how the garden grows
Midnight in /] July
We see the season /] spread across the /] sky
We wake up to a nosy dragon- x3x031-fly
Against the screen
You just love to bite me where it shows
You kiss me, then hide my clothes
Running through the sprinklers nearly raw
We've just disproved Newton's law
How can I break even with the weeds
In love so beyond my needs
Blossoms on you Mama's rose
This is how the garden grows
