Lyrics The Tear Garden

The Tear Garden

Ophelia

Crawling through the minefield

We never saw the signs

The lightning flashes thunder claps

Oh is it just a dream Ophelia

Saw the dark clouds rolling

Scavengers revolving as we

Made love on a log in the fog

Is it just a dream Ophelia

There was just a hint of searchlight

It illuminates a pair of lonely souls locked together

Is it just our dream Ophelia

Trying hard to hide

To melt away but rolling for a

gallery of eyes

watching waiting

Is it just our dream Ophelia

And love is blind

It cracks its stick across our fingers

Makes us bleed It makes us sick

Is it just our dream Ophelia

Water's boiling but the need is strong

And we have to swim

Let's find an island find a log

That maybe we'll call home

Our home Ophelia

Do you think that we can make it on our own

Our dream Ophelia
