Garden Under the Blue Bridge Lyrics by Strapping Fieldhands

Alluvium Trinkets

2018

There’s a place in Old City, where cobblestones meet big blue bridge
And we used to go there so long ago, to our secret garden
See us few intrepid bohos, saw land abandoned that could grow
A vacant lot was divvyed up into plots our seeds we began to sow

Cause in my garden I sit under blue bridge watch train cars roll up over my head
Cause in my garden I sit and see Jersey a monster that looms up over the ships
For in my garden I sit and watch as vines grow high so high they threaten to cloud out the sky

In thе garden we water sprouts that won’t comе out if there’s a drought about
There’s a path that leads down to the garden, we used to go there late at night
Take a break from bars, look up at the stars and maybe pick some weeds
That sent the sunflowers soaring, spinning up like gold brown shields
A thousand plants would then commence’n to dance through magic moonlit fields

Cause in my garden we saw a light that flows downstream into a dream of the night
And in the garden we grew by leaps and bounds the grounds were a green exploding new scene
And in the garden we both got lost entwining thoughts that tossed our fertile minds

Night sky was aubergine held meanings vast and deep we dared not to sleep
Wine red Pocono limestone formed the flagstones that did wind
Garden borders hewn of recycled oak, side benches made of pine
Thus our infrastructure was crafted out of odds and ends
Ceramic frog and a wizened old gnome guarded their garden home

Cause in my garden I sit under the blue bridge watch train cars roli over my head
Cause in my garden I sit and see Jersey a monster that looms up over the ships …

(Whistling)

Now they’ve torn down our dear garden, built some condominiums
Though I guess it’s nice for affluent types, I swear it’s got no soul
But I'll not forget the garden, and the secrets that it held
The winding path, the vernal village fioral
The way the blossoms smelled
