Lyrics

[Chorus 1] Said he'd build me a courtyard He promised he would And spend time in my courtyard Whenever he could [Verse] In the corner, a tall tree So shady and cool A white marble fountain In a clear sparkling pool A lovely stone courtyard With a lacy iron gate And a bountiful garden Where I could wait [Chorus 2] Yes, he built me a courtyard Like he promised he would And I know that he'd come to my side Oh, he would if he could [Outro] Patterns on a courtyard floor Illusions of all I'm living for
