[00:00:00] Forsaken Gardens (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill

[00:00:00] Where are all the joys of yesterday

[00:00:11] Where now is the happiness and laughter that we shared

[00:00:21] Gone like our childhood dreams aspirations and beliefs

[00:00:30] Time is a thief and he ravages our gardens

[00:00:39] Stripping saplings felling trees

[00:00:47] Trampling on our flowers sucking sap and drying seeds

[00:00:56] In the midnight candle-light of experience

[00:01:04] All colour fades green fingers grey

[00:01:20] Time alone shall murder all the flowers

[00:01:28] Still there's time to share our plots and all that we call' ours'

[00:01:37] How much worse then if we all deny each others' needs

[00:01:46] And keep our gardens privately

[00:01:54] Its getting colder wind and rain leave gashes

[00:01:58] Looking back I only see the friends I've lost

[00:02:04] Fires smoulder raking through the ashes

[00:02:08] My hands are dirty my mind is numb

[00:02:11] I count the cost of I'

[00:02:17] I need to get on I've got to tend my garden

[00:02:21] Got to shut you out no time to crave your pardon now

[00:02:42] Now I see the garden that I've grown is

[00:02:45] Just the same as those outside

[00:02:51] The fences that erected to protect simply divide

[00:03:00] There's ruination everywhere

[00:03:02] The weather has played havoc with the grass

[00:03:09] Does anyone believe his garden's really going to last

[00:03:17] In the time allotted us can any man keep miserly his own

[00:03:25] Is there any pleasure in a solitary growth

[00:04:21] Come and see my garden if you will

[00:04:28] I'd like someone to see it all before each root is killed

[00:04:42] Surely now its time to open up each life to all

[00:04:51] Tear down the walls if it's not too late

[00:05:07] There is so much sorrow in the world

[00:05:14] There is so much emptiness and heartbreak and pain

[00:05:23] Somewhere on the road we have all taken a wrong turn

[00:05:32] How can we build the right path again

[00:05:48] Through the grief through the pain

[00:06:01] Our flowers need each other's rain
