Rich – Gardens of Babylon Lyrics
Artist: Rich
Song: Gardens of Babylon
Button up
On the floor
Buttercup
On the door
There they hang with the dark dahlias
Snapdragons
In the noon
Watch them
Blossom and bloom
Hung up on the thought of forgetting you
Your love stays under the roses
Your touch, it comes and goes and
I see clear you want me, but not here
In the sun, some sing to new love
In the night, sweep it under the rug
But I know ambition hides in your despondent guise
Well, they say “It’s all a matter of time” (time, time, time, time, time keeps ticking on you)
“The heart grows fonder with each goodbye” (bye, bye, bye, bye, this time, baby, we’re through)
So don’t let it slip right out of your fingertips
Love has to die and end to begin (begin, begin, begin)
Taking time
With the boys
Let them drown
Out the noise
Hanging on like the gardens of Babylon
Window sill
In my mind
Maybe June
Or July
Me and my begonias we’ll pray for you
Your love stays under the roses
Your touch, it comes and goes and
I see clear you want me, but not here
In the sun, some sing to new love
In the night, sweep it under the rug
But I know ambition hides in your despondent guise
Well, they say “It’s all a matter of time” (time, time, time, time, time keeps ticking on you)
“The heart grows fonder with each goodbye” (bye, bye, bye, bye, this time, baby, we’re through)
So don’t let it slip right out of your fingertips
Love has to die and end to begin (begin, begin, begin)
Hanging on tight
To the gardens of Babylon
Saying goodbye
To the sadness of the rising sun
Just shut your eyes
Keep them tight until the break of dawn
Hanging on tight
To the gardens of Babylon
Hanging on tight
To the gardens of Babylon
Saying goodbye
To the sadness of the rising sun
Just shut your eyes
Keep them tight until the break of dawn
Hanging on tight
To the gardens of Babylon
