From the recording Adirondack Blue
Lyrics
Lady In The Garden
Roy Hurd
Lady in the garden
Moves just like a butterfly
From flower to flower
She smiles as she flutters by
Red ripe tomatoes hang perfect on the vine
Like a full breasted woman
In the freedom of the morning time
Her fingers smell like basil
Her breath of sweet snap peas
Barefoot beautiful
Come over here and kiss me please
Her lips taste like summer rain
Soft as a cloud
Our hearts are spillin over ah
Love is such fertile ground
Chorus:
It all comes down to the same conclusion
Livin with the mountains and the trees
Baby says it’s all just a beautiful illusion
It’s the perfect one for me
Lady in the garden
Spinach kale and collard greens
Sun tanned skin and dirt stained knees
Food for our dinner table
We bow our heads in grace
A home grown gift from heaven
Thank you God I love this place
Repeat Chorus:
It all comes down to the same conclusion
Thinkin bout her and me
If this is all just a beautiful illusion
It’s the perfect one for me
