The Hanging Gardens

[Verse 1]
Follow me down
Down to a place
Where snapdragons pop
Among marigold lakes

Gathering wood
Through a thicket of sap
Elm, beech
Sycamore and ash
Avoiding deciduous leaves

Water clear
Lotus green
It's all for you
My darling queen

[Verse 2]
Follow me down
Walkways of scent
Blooms of azaleas
The lilies lament

Twilight and breeze
Nightingales sing
Song for my sweet
A gift from your king

[Bridge]
Don't forget
Forget-me-not's

[Verse 3]
Sky of blue
Gardens serene
It's all for you
My darling queen

[Bridge]
Look!
They're building a tower
Up to the heavens
I never could measure
The heavens to Babylon

[Outro]
Follow me down
What do you see?
I dreamt it for you
My darling queen
