lyrics
We were as free as we would ever be
Roaming the garden in his company
We were the keepers of our destiny
We watched the story unfold
We ate the fruit of the forbidden tree
I threw you under ‘cause you gave it to me
It’s not the same when you are next to me
Our sons and daughters are cold
I was a lion with a wig for a mane
And it was hardly a cure
You were a fighter throwing punches in vain
Like you had something to prove
There is a garden we can’t see from here
A hope of what is to come
And in the wait we’ll find the courage to
Pick up the pieces or run
And I know that there’s a gardener
He’s waging war against the weeds
They’re set in motion to divide us
Now they’re up above our heads and the trees
Prove, like you had something to prove
Prove, like I had something to prove
Prove, like we had something to prove
Prove, we ain’t got nothing to prove
The sun was setting on our running away
We were facing our fears
I wrestled the gardener til he gave me a name
And you forgave me the years
