Magic Garden

(álbum: I'll Buy You A Star - 1961)

There is a garden
Something like the shadow of a butterfly
And lies beyond the gates of dark and light
And, darling, it belongs to me

When you go there
There will be such laughter in the dimpled sky
The songs you sing will drive away the night
The magic garden has a way of making you feel free

It's the place I've made for you
From match-boxes and cards and dominoes
And it won't fall down

And when your dreaming vanishes
Like snowflakes in the summer sky
Melts away in darkness

And you don't know why the magic garden
Waits without the gates wide open
And, darling, I'll be standing just inside

And when your dreaming vanishes
Like snowflakes in the summer sky
Melts away in darkness

And you don't know why the magic garden
Waits without the gates wide open
And, darling, I'll be standing just inside

It's so soft and warm
Behind those hedges
No hard edges, no hard edges

There is a garden
Vanishes like snowflakes in the summer sky
Melts away in darkness

And you don't know why the magic garden
Waits without the gates wide open
And, darling, I'll be standing just inside
