That Same Old Obsession

Lyrics
[Verse 1] I come to this garden, I come here to rest Early each day upon rising I think of my lost love from over the sea And sometimes I've wondered if he thinks of me I long to recall every kiss, every kind word I miss him so much I could die But the creatures of evil have captured his heart And that same old obsession still keeps us apart [Verse 2] But there's peace in this garden, there's peace in thе air Peace in the sound of thе river There's peace in the meadow, the sun shines like gold But if he were with me there'd be peace in my soul I long to return to the place I remember The taste of his sweet lips on mine Aw, but I could do much better if I could be strong Come into my garden or leave me alone [Verse 3] I come to this garden, I come here alone Just as the nighttime comes stealing Someone is weeping, I'm calling his name Deep in the garden, deep in my brain I long to recall every kiss, every kind word I miss him so much I could die But the creatures of evil have captured his heart And that same old obsession still keeps us apart The creatures of evil have captured his heart And that same old obsession still keeps us apart [Outro] Mmm Mmm Mmm
