"stranger in the garden" lyrics

"stranger in the garden"

I built a wall so high it touched the sky and we were safe inside
I planted flowers, trees, mountains, moons, every star was mine
But in the distance, the horizon sun is setting, smoke is rising up
And our flowers turned to me "We're wilting, someone's in the shadows hiding out"

Oh, we tried to run, we tried to hide
From the stranger in the garden
Face to the dark, ready to find the stranger in the garden
The stranger in the garden

Oh whisper on the wind a secret in the night sounds like my name
And through the wooded maze, I swear I saw the echo of a face
Turned every stone, search every corner from the mountains to the deep blue shores
I'm not afraid, I won't give up now that I found a soul worth fighting for

Oh, we tried to run, we tried to hide
From the stranger in the garden
Face to the dark, ready to find the stranger in the garden
We tried to run, we tried to hide
From the stranger in the garden
Face to the dark, ready to find the stranger in the garden

Oh, we tried to run, we tried to hide
From the stranger in the garden
Face to the dark, ready to find the stranger in the garden
We tried to run, we tried to hide
From the stranger in the garden
Face to the dark, ready to find the stranger in the garden

The stranger in the garden
The stranger in the garden
