The Olive Hedge
I don't feel the need not to care, not to weep
I'll take a walk and keep my wits about myself
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
I don't want to mind, I'll keep my wits about myself
I'll take a walk to drown it out
Drown in this garden rain
I wonder why I feel such pain
Dress a rose in my hair
Elbows against a cold stone chair
Rolling hills, sun is out
Marble eyes look about
They watch me walk around and think about my life
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
And what I say, they watch me walk around
And think about the stupid things I say
Fountains feed the flowers' leaves'
Complexions' turned pale just like me
Pluck a rose from the hedge
Meadows enrich my every breath
I don't feel the need not to care, not to weep
I'll take a walk and keep my wits about myself
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
I don't want to die, I'll keep my wits about myself
I'll take a walk to drown it out
Drown in this garden rain
I wonder why I feel such pain
I'll take a walk and keep my wits about myself
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
I don't want to mind, I'll keep my wits about myself
I'll take a walk to drown it out
Drown in this garden rain
I wonder why I feel such pain
Dress a rose in my hair
Elbows against a cold stone chair
Rolling hills, sun is out
Marble eyes look about
They watch me walk around and think about my life
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
And what I say, they watch me walk around
And think about the stupid things I say
Fountains feed the flowers' leaves'
Complexions' turned pale just like me
Pluck a rose from the hedge
Meadows enrich my every breath
I don't feel the need not to care, not to weep
I'll take a walk and keep my wits about myself
(Wooden bridge by the brook, climb the birch, take a look over the olive hedge, see me pacing)
I don't want to die, I'll keep my wits about myself
I'll take a walk to drown it out
Drown in this garden rain
I wonder why I feel such pain
