In The Garden
Version 1 is a full studio recording
Note that the second version of Copper Wires was remastered, but I can't discern any difference with this track Note that on Collaborator the fade out isn't quite complete, as the last split second was actually after the track split on Copper Wires |
Version 2 is a live recording, performed solo with acoustic guitar

lyrics version 1
I love you and you love me
Oh how happy we could be
In the garden
Standing naked in the light
Walking slow in the cool of the night
In the garden
In the garden
But we were blind and much too young
We listened to the serpent's tongue
Love was singing without sound
We saw the light but turned around
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on and on and on
We were deceived by a dark device
We were so close to paradise
In the garden
Now we face the burning sun
And talk of what we should have done
In the garden
Before we touched that wretched tree
We had the chance to live so free
In the garden
But we were blind and much too young
We listened to the serpent's tongue
Deceived by a dark device
We've let go of paradise
When finally death gives us release
Then once again we'll be at peace
In the garden
In the garden [x4]
Oh how happy we could be
In the garden
Standing naked in the light
Walking slow in the cool of the night
In the garden
In the garden
But we were blind and much too young
We listened to the serpent's tongue
Love was singing without sound
We saw the light but turned around
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on and on and on
We were deceived by a dark device
We were so close to paradise
In the garden
Now we face the burning sun
And talk of what we should have done
In the garden
Before we touched that wretched tree
We had the chance to live so free
In the garden
But we were blind and much too young
We listened to the serpent's tongue
Deceived by a dark device
We've let go of paradise
When finally death gives us release
Then once again we'll be at peace
In the garden
In the garden [x4]
lyrics version 2
This is about relationships, when you realise you damage one another, and it's not the way it should be [Spoken]
I love you and you love me
Oh how happy we could be
In the garden
Standing naked in the light
Walking slow in the cool of the night
In the garden
We were blind and much too young
We could not see what God had done
Love was speaking without sound
We would refuse and got turned around
In the garden
We were tricked by a dark device
We were so close to paradise
In the garden
Now we stand alone in the burning sun
And think of what we should have done
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on and on and on
When finally death gives us release
Then once again we shall have peace
Like in the garden
In the garden
Like when I loved you and you loved me
And we had the chance to be so free
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on
This song's really about divorce. It's about losing someone for your own stupid reasons and problems they had too [Spoken]

In the garden [x3]
I love you and you love me
Oh how happy we could be
In the garden
Standing naked in the light
Walking slow in the cool of the night
In the garden
We were blind and much too young
We could not see what God had done
Love was speaking without sound
We would refuse and got turned around
In the garden
We were tricked by a dark device
We were so close to paradise
In the garden
Now we stand alone in the burning sun
And think of what we should have done
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on and on and on
When finally death gives us release
Then once again we shall have peace
Like in the garden
In the garden
Like when I loved you and you loved me
And we had the chance to be so free
In the garden
Separated when darkness fell
Our choice unlocked the gates of hell
Now the garden's dead and gone
And our suffering goes on
This song's really about divorce. It's about losing someone for your own stupid reasons and problems they had too [Spoken]
