Van Morrison - In the Garden lyrics
[Van Morrison - In the Garden lyrics]
After a summer shower when I saw you standin'
Standin' in the garden
In the garden wet with rain
You wiped the teardrops from
Your eye in sorrow
As we watched the petals fall
Down to the ground
And as I sat beside you I felt the
Great sadness that day in the garden
And then one day you came back home
You were a creature all in rapture
You had your key to your soul
And you did open that day you
Came back to the garden
The olden summer breeze was
Blowin' against your face (Alright)
The light of the Lord's shinin'
On your countenance divine
And you were a violet colour as you
Sat beside your father and your
Mother in the garden
The summer breeze was blowin' on your face
Within your violet you treasure
Your summery words and as the shiver from my
Neck down to my spine
Ignited me in daylight and
Nature in the garden
And you went into a trance
Your childlike vision became so fine
And we heard lil' bells within the church
We loved so much
And felt the presence of the youth of
Eternal summers in the garden (Alright)
And as it touched your cheeks so lightly
Born again you were and blushed
And we touched each other lightly
And we felt the presence of the Christ
Within our hearts in the garden
And I turned to you and I said
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father in the garden listen
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden wet with rain
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden in the garden wet with rain
Yeah, alright no guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father in the garden
