I've Known the Garden

Shouldn't we take the time now

One of these days the gig is up
To show our love
I've known the garden

But I don't care
Bye bye roses
But I don't care

I know I gave him all the love I got

Shouldn't we take the time now
One of these days the gig is up

To show our love
But no regrets
I've known the garden
But no regrets
Now I'm searchin' for a sign
But I don't care
Now I'm on the road again
One of these days the gig is up
I've known the garden
Shouldn't we take the time now
I've known the garden
But looking back there're only good times
But I don't care
Now she's left and gone away
And I'm here by myself another day
But I don't care
Never late and coffee ice cream made her smile
To show our love
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
To show our love
I've known the garden
Bye, bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
I've known the garden
I've known the garden
Tell me did you see the end comin'
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
At least I know it was sunny

She was always my best friend
I've known the garden
To show our love
It's clear that match won't work for me
I've known the garden
Tell me did she see the end comin'
Shouldn't we take the time now
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet

But I don't care
Bye, bye roses

One of these days the gig is up
I've known the garden
My mistake
But no regrets
My soul aches
Shouldn't we take the time
Yeah, I got the blues again
But no regrets
One of these days the gig is up

Bye bye roses
And though I'll miss her to no end, my heart breaks
Shouldn't we take the time now
One of these days the gig is up
I've known the garden
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
I've known the garden

To show our love
I've known the garden
And now though things don't seem so hot
Bye, bye roses
All the time that she spent with me
