I'll never stop a bullet but a bullet might stop me   I'll never drink the ocean but the ocean might drink me   And I'll never raise a portrait to a gentle man in blue   And I'll never sing a love song for a love that isn't true   I love how the garden grows   And I love the garden rose      And I'll never sweep the alley though the alley might be clean   And I'll never be for countries though I one day might be mean   And I'll never be the master of a fortune with a name   And I'll never know the difference though I might just know the same   I love how the garden grows   And I love the garden rose      So I started to remember how to live in present time   But I wanted to remember how it was when you were mine   And I'll never know the reason or season or the time   Why we couldn't live together with out a daily crime   I love how how the garden grows   And I love the garden rose   I love the how the garden grows   And I love the garden rose...
