[00:00:01] Gardens In The City - Melanie

[00:00:03] Written by：Melanie Safka

[00:00:06] When I was young I lived in the country

[00:00:11] Clouds were my friends I cannot answer why

[00:00:16] And now that I've grown I live in the city

[00:00:22] And heaven is so far I cannot reach the sky

[00:00:27] I once met a man who lived in the city

[00:00:32] The stone was his home he said his heart was mine

[00:00:38] He led me far away when he told me I was pretty

[00:00:43] How strange to go so far and never touch the sky

[00:00:53] Gardens grow most times in the country

[00:00:59] Grow a wondrous high

[00:01:04] Gardens grow sometimes in the city

[00:01:10] Grow but soon they die

[00:01:15] Now I look up at the buildings of the city

[00:01:21] Their fingers are so much longer than mine

[00:01:26] I wish I had the hands of the city

[00:01:31] For heaven is so far I cannot reach the sky

[00:01:42] Gardens grow most times in the country

[00:01:47] Grow a wondrous high

[00:01:53] Gardens grow sometimes in the city

[00:01:58] Grow but soon they die

[00:02:04] When I was young I lived in the country

[00:02:09] Clouds were my friends I cannot answer why

[00:02:15] And now that I've grown I live in the city

[00:02:20] And heaven is so far I cannot reach the sky

[00:02:26] And heaven is so far I'll never touch the sky
