Eric Clapton - Thorn Tree In The Garden lyrics

By bobby whitlock There's a thorn tree in the garden, if you know just what i mean, And i hate to hurt your feelings but its not the way it seems, 'cause i miss her. She's the only girl i've cared for, the only one i've known. And no one ever shared more love than we've known. And i miss her. But it all seems so strange to see, That she'd never turn her back on me And leave without a last goodbye. And if she winds up walking the streets, Loving every other man she meets Who'll be the one to answer why? Lord, i hope it's not me, it's not me. And if i never see her face again, i never hold her hand. And if she's in somebody's arms, i know i'll understand But i miss that girl. i still miss that girl. Maybe someday soon, somewhere.
