This was a lovely place
People say, a perfect place
Whatever it is, he needs it now
Whatever the poor man sets his heart on
We sang those songs so well
What we lost and how we fell
Whatever it is, he needs it now
Whatever the poor man sets his heart on
CHORUS
And so we learn there's no return
Only journeys to depart on
Salt and dust, oil and rust
It's still the only garden
I'm no Adam, you're no Eve
Don't look back and never grieve
A wasted seed, a broken reed
It's what the poor man sets his heart on
CHORUS x2
We never left the garden
