I was born at 6 a.m.
on my mother's birthday
My family bought a big house
by the coast
I guess I was luckier than most
Got a brother and a sister
both a few years older
Dad wrote for a paper
Mom stayed home with me
I guess we all felt pretty free
Everything just came so easily
And how beautiful life can be
We had a big leafy garden
Wider than the world
It was out there I first started noticing
Winter turning into spring
Lying in my mother's arms
Out there on the patio
Falling asleep to the sound of bees
Underneath the crooked apple trees
Shaded by their giant leaves
And how beautiful life can be
Oh yes
Falling asleep
In a leafy garden
Wider than the world
Oh yes
Falling asleep
In a leafy garden
Wider than the world
Yes I am
Falling asleep
In a leafy garden
Wider than the world
Oh yes
Falling asleep
In a leafy garden
Wider than the world
