I had a friend who spoke of fate and he
Knew of another place in space and time
He told of how me and my lady
Could look but we would never find

Said, "If you please, I beg your pardon
Sometimes the things you see, they just ain't so
You life can be an avant garden
'Cause love's what makes your garden grow"

The sun leads the way the moon lights the sky
I see you and I lying in my avant garden
I dream of the day when our worlds collide
We won't be denied here inside our avant garden

Sometimes my life ain't what it's seemin'
Right from the start it's what your heart's believin'
Could all this just be lucid dreaming
But dreams just ain't enough for me

The sun leads the way the moon lights the sky
I see you and I lying in my avant garden
I dream of the day when our worlds collide
We won't be denied here inside our avant garden

You know it just ain't right
To deal with other's shite
No one should ever be so broken hearted
Don't ever be afraid 'cause when you got it made
Yeah you don't even have to try

So I'll be waiting in your garden
Watching all your flowers grow

The sun leads the way the moon lights the sky
I see you and I lying in my avant garden
I dream of the day when our worlds collide
You'll know we’ve arrived here inside our avant garden

The sun brings the rain the moon needs the sky
I see you and I lying in my avant garden
Beware of the lies a word to the wise
There’s sweet cherry pies
And truth inside our avant garden
