The Gardener

I sense a runner in the garden
Although my judgements known to fail
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
'Cause I'd forgotten how to sailI know the runner's going to tell you
There ain't no cowboy in my hair
So now he's buried by the daisies
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babeI sense a spy up in the chimney
From all the evidence I've burned
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
And soon to ashes I'll returnI know the spy is going to tell you
It's not my flag up in the pole
So now he's buried by the lilies
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babeI sense a leak inside my phone now
From all the lies I have told
I know he has your private number
And soon he'll make that vicious callI know the leak is going to tell you
There ain't now puppy in your leash
So now he'll fertilize the roses
So I could stay the king you see
In your eyes, babe
In your eyes, babeSo now we're dancing through the garden
And what a garden I have made
And now that death will grow my jasmine
I find it soothing I'm afraidNow there is no need for suspicion
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
I won't be lying when I tell you
That I'm a Gardner I'm a man
In your eyes babe
In your eyes babe
In your eyes babe
