It wouldn't take me long   To tell you how to find it   To tell you where we'll meet      This little girl inside me   Is retreating to her favorite place      Go into the garden   Go under the ivy   Under the leaves   Away from the party      Go right to the rose   Go right to the white rose   (For me)      I sit here in the thunder   The green on the gray   I feel it all around me      And it's not easy for me   To give away a secret   It's not safe      Go into the garden   Go under the ivy   Under the leaves   Away from the party      Go right to the rose   Go right to the white rose   (For me)      Go into the garden   Go under the ivy   Go under the leaves with me      Go right to the rose   Go right to the white rose   I'll be waiting for you      It wouldn't take me long   To tell you how to find it
