English trees in my garden We planted seeds in a faraway land In between the palms and the succulent grove They lose their leaves in the winter Mark the seasons for him and for her Once upon a time in the fallen snow Up against the sky made a silhouette show England cries and she plays for him Two chords entwined like a requiem Although its springtime, colour is new In Regents Park, I will mourn for you And I must be wise somehow Cause my hearts been broken down Its so far to fall And so hard to climb Nothings sadder, I know Than the passing of time Wont forget me You wont forget me English trees in my garden Summers missed you, my darling And all your crimes are forgiven Yeah, all your crimes are forgiven And I must be wise somehow English trees in my garden
