The Garden Treaty

[Intro]
[Verse]
Gran said watch the ground
Where no human sound
Ever dares to tread
By the flower bed
She knew every face
In this hidden place
Of the painted stone
Sitting all alone
[Pre-Chorus]
The sky turns to gold
Like a story being told
I sneak past the door
To the forest floor
[Chorus]
The Red-Caps are meeting tonight
Under the pale moon light
Three yards of secret kings
In their tiny hollow rings
They whisper what we forgot
In the overgrown garden plot
[Interlude]
[Verse]
The Miller's gnome is old
With a heart of ceramic gold
But he hates the Thorne's
By the blackberry thorns
They fight for the shade
In the grassy glade
For a mossy throne
That they call their own
[Bridge]
When the solstice sun is high
In the middle of the sky
They gather at the well
By the bluebell bell
I find her silver thread
Where the clover has spread
A sign she left behind
For a wandering mind
[Verse]
Her chair is empty now
Under the willow bough
But the gnomes don't forget
They haven't left us yet
They guard the garden gate
While I sit and wait
For a sign of her grace
In this holy place
[Chorus]
The Red-Caps are meeting tonight
Under the pale moon light
Three yards of secret kings
In their tiny hollow rings
They whisper what we forgot
In the overgrown garden plot
[Post-Chorus]
They whisper what we forgot
In the overgrown garden plot
Three yards of secret kings
In their tiny hollow rings
[Outro]
