A Wednesday in Your Garden

I tried to fly in your garden

It's a long way coming down
I watched the sky above me harden
The ladders in your eye
The ladders in your eye

But you're too tall

For a Wednesday in your garden
You watched me fall
I think that I would die
You stand and laugh
It's a long way coming down
You win the hand, I throw my cards in
I tried to stand in your garden
I tried to beg for your pardon

You watched me fall
For a Wednesday in your garden
Your long back funeral gown
For a Wednesday in your garden
You stand and laugh
You're much too tall
But you shot me down
It's a long way coming down
And your black gown
You stand and laugh
Mama you shot me down on the ground
I think that I would die
The ladders in your eye
