Back Yard
My mother is a warm house in winter
A fogged up window, an oven light in the dark
The earliest pictures inside me
How the smallest of things can rewind the heart
My father is coal dust and loose change
A sleeve rolled up, pipe smoke in the air
Like a road map to days I remember
It's a long time gone, but I can still get there
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
All that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
My brother is Lego and petrol
An engine backfiring, a silver toy gun
The blueprints of my young adventures
A book of tall tales I still read from
My sisters are cassette tapes and posters
Hairbrush microphones, songs through the walls
We were the kids of the 90's
Doesn't take a whole lot to bring me back to it all
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
For all that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
All that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
A fogged up window, an oven light in the dark
The earliest pictures inside me
How the smallest of things can rewind the heart
My father is coal dust and loose change
A sleeve rolled up, pipe smoke in the air
Like a road map to days I remember
It's a long time gone, but I can still get there
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
All that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
My brother is Lego and petrol
An engine backfiring, a silver toy gun
The blueprints of my young adventures
A book of tall tales I still read from
My sisters are cassette tapes and posters
Hairbrush microphones, songs through the walls
We were the kids of the 90's
Doesn't take a whole lot to bring me back to it all
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
For all that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
The seeds that were sown in the garden
Gave flowers that still catch my eye
All that once was is never truly gone because
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard of my mind
I can go there anytime
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
It's in the backyard
