melanie safka - gardens in the city lyrics
when i was young, i lived in the country,
clouds were my friends, i cannot answer why,
and now that i’ve grown, i live in the city,
and heaven is so far, i cannot reach the sky,
i once met a man, who lived in the city,
the stone was his home, he said his heart was mine,
he led me far away, when he told me i was pretty,
how strange to go so far, and never touch the sky,
gardens grow most times in the country,
grow a wondrous high,
gardens grow sometimes in the city,
grow, but soon they die,
now i look up at the buildings of the city,
their fingers are so much longer than mine,
i wish i had the hands of the city,
for heaven is so far, i cannot reach the sky,
gardens grow most times in the country,
grow a wondrous high,
gardens grow sometimes in the city,
grow, but soon they die,
when i was young, i lived in the country,
clouds were my friends, i cannot answer why,
and now that i’ve grown, i live in the city,
and heaven is so far, i cannot reach the sky,
and heaven is so far, i’ll never touch the sky…
