Chris Robinson Brotherhood - Some Gardens Green lyrics

Deep within your eyes I see what hides behind your smile What happened out there To make you so scared As to chase these wicked miles How many have come and gone Another brother, another son, another pa**er by How many ways to say The lies that find their way Into the image in your mind It's not all it seems In some gardens green Where black thorns are waiting To wound tender hands A dark fruit there ripens Hung on a vine And who dare not pick it Will find love his true friend Let it in, let's begin Saw you sitting there In a boat on a chair Down a river Smooth and wide On the shore I stare With our people standing there As our mother floats on by And as the river took her in A storm did begin and blew the sky away I remember you walking through the park A red scarf The archer pulls his bow, aims for his mark
