magic garden

A# Dm
there is a garden ,
D# Cm Gm
something like the shadow of a butterfly
D# G#
and lies beyond the gates of dark and light
Fsus4
and darling , it belongs to me

A# Dm
and when you go there
D# Cm Gm
there will be such laughter in the dimpled sky
D# G#
the songs i sing will drive away the night
C# F#
the magic garden has a way of making you feel free

C F
it’s the place i’ve made for you
C F
from matchboxes and cards and dominoes
C A# D# G# C# F# D#
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
C# F# A#
waits with all the gates wide open and darlin’ , i’ll be standin’ just inside

and when your dreaming vanishes . . .

A#
it’s so soft and warm behind those hedges
no hard edges , no hard edges

there is a garden , vanishes like snowflakes . . .
