Gordon Lightfoot - That Same Old Obsession Lyrics
I come to this gardenI come here to restEarly each day upon risinI think of my lost loveFrom over the seaAnd sometimes Ive wonderedIf she thinks of meI long to recall every kiss, every kind wordI miss her so much I could dieBut the creatures of evilHave captured her heartAnd that same old obsessionStill keeps us apartTheres peace in the gardenTheres peace in the airPeace in the sound of the riverTheres peace in the meadowThe sun shines like goldAnd if she were with meThered be peace in my soulI long to return to the place, I rememberThe taste of her lips close to mineI could do much betterIf I could be strongCome into my gardenBut leave me aloneI come to this gardenI come here to restJust as the night comes stealinSomeone is weepingShes calling my nameDeep in the gardenDeep in my brainI long to recall every kiss, every kind wordI miss her so much I could dieBut the creatures of evilHave captured her heartAnd that same old obsessionStill keeps us apartBut the creatures of evilHave captured her heartAnd that same old obsessionStill keeps us apart
