lyrics

VILLAGE GREEN

“It´s only a little piece of paradise you know
she said, “that you can find,
but people come and go
for natures beauty not completely blind:
called village green”

Along the fence sunflowers growing (greeting),
a bow of many colored roses calls you in,
thousands of pinks line up a small path
to a wooden bench between a lot of asters.

Sit down and take your time and look
around let your eyes wander (take a trip)
over beans, crawling high on poles
not pressed in small tin cans,
tomatos ripe and big and red
neighbours of carots exactly in a row,
a little field of real potato plants,
cucumber, pumkins, everything you know
gooseberrys red and black currants
like in your childhoods garden,
a potherbs corner filled with peppermint,
and chives and thyme and sage and dill and rosemary
and tarragon and lemon balm and savory.

“It´s only a tiny little part
of paradise you know”
she said, “that you can find,
but some place you have to start,
and many people come and go
for natures beauty not completely blind,
called: village green.”
