PINK MARTINI LYRICS - The Gardens Of Sampson & Beasley

"The Gardens Of Sampson & Beasley"



Under Orion's starry sky

I lie in the moonlit garden

Wondering where to cast my eye

For all that I see is heaven

Oh why does it have to end

I wish we could still pretend

You're near, just around the bend

In the gardens of Sampson and Beasley



Last time we were in this place

Your face had a certain sadness

And oh how I've wondered since

What you've done with all that sadness

Oh why did it have to end

I wish we could still pretend

Our love was around the bend

In the garden of Sampson and Beasley



Under Orion's starry sky

I lie in the moonlit garden

Wondering when I close my eyes

If I'll ever find my heaven

Oh why will it never end

These days where I still pretend

Our love just around the bend

In the gardens of Sampson and Beasley
