You hear it every day

Once upon a time they say

Once upon a time in this place

I looked and saw on your face

A smile that spoke to me

In oh so many ways

The sunday morning bells

Rang out that all was well

Sunshine across the yard

We'd rest when we worked hard

We take a little time off

To appreciate the day

And love builds a garden

Grew it from the ground up

Each one of us knowing

Every inch of it was us

We pulled it all together

Hoping and believing

That love built this garden

For the two of us to dream in.

We'd get a little rain

Then the sun came out again

But a frost it's hard to fight

Once it takes hold flowers die

There's only so much you can do

To keep some things alive.

And love builds a garden

Grew it from the ground up

Each one of us knowing

Every inch of it was us

We pulled it all together

Hoping and believing

That love built this garden

For the two of us to dream in.

Sad to say, it's true

Without a lover who

Cares as much

Well I guess, I guess it goes to prove.

That love built a garden

Growed it from the ground up

Each one of you knowing

Every inch of it is trust

Pulled it all together

Hoping and believing

That love builds a garden

For the two of you to dream in.
