Lyrics

Trying to make his garden grow, cursing at the rain
Counting all his seeds there in a row
Standing in the furrowed ground
A desolate scarecrow
Swearing that the past won't come again

Staring at the gulls above, hanging in the breeze
Threatening the order that he loves
Brandishing a work-worn hand
Swears he's had enough
Nature's disarray is a disease

He just wants to live, love and dream
Live, love and dream
Tend the days that pass, then let them go at last
Live, love and dream

Maybe when the spring arrives and earth reveals its skin
Maybe when he sees a clearer sky
Maybe in tat Kinder light
Shadows won't disguise
Maybe then he'll let himself begin

To live, love and dream
Live, love and dream
Tend the days that pass, then let them go at last
Live, love and dream, live, love and dream
Tend the days that pass, then let them go at last
And live, love dream
