Michael In The Garden
(专辑: My Side Of Your Window - 1969)
Out in the
garden, amongst the
bushes, Michael is crying Caught in a
spider's web, its broken wings beating, a
butterfly dying Oh la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la And they in their wisdom say "Michael's got something wrong, wrong, wrong with his mind" Well they must be blind, if they can't see what Michael sees Michael is silent, talking to no one of things that he sees But out in the
garden, he talks in soft whispers, like the
wind in the
leaves Oh la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la And they in their wisdom say "Michael's got something wrong, wrong, wrong with his mind" They've seen the
signs, but they can't see what Michael sees And inside the
building someone is calling his name through the
halls But he doesn't answer, though he easily hears each leaf as it falls Oh la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la And they in their wisdom say "Michael's got something wrong, wrong, wrong with his mind" Well they must be blind, for they can't see what Michael sees Michael where are you? Michael where are we We who see that there's something wrong with your mind? And inside the
garden Michael is smiling, at peace in his world At one with the
insects, the
flowers, and the
trees, and the
wind and the
birds Oh la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la Oh, Michael sees all Behind the
high walls Surrounding his kingdom Whilst we in our wisdom Still trapped in the
spider's web Far from the
flow and ebb Of life in the
garden But Michael has pardoned Us for he sees That really he's free And there's nothing to mend For his wings are not broken And they in their wisdom say "Michael's got something wrong, wrong, wrong with his mind" They've seen the
signs, but Michael feels fine inside the
garden
