Lyrics

It's a real part of something
One that no detective follows
Over all the cars and houses
Burning in a lane of stars

Fireflies and lanterns are
The powers in your bed of darkness
Fire works but only in slow motion

Love in the garden of light
Tissue paper hearts that flutter in the night and they're gone
Love in the garden of light
I wish you could be here beside me

'Is there any real silence
Real peace or just a lack of noise?',
She was wondering half-aloud and tapping on a china vase
Suddenly the dragon cracked alive and slid from the ceramic
Honey you were deeper than the ocean

Love in the garden of light
Half a billion people struggle in the night and they're gone
Love in the garden of light
I wish you could be here beside me

You've got the power if you'd only choose to use it honey
Treat each other right on Earth, you wouldn't have to move to Mars
Agitated molecules are electricity within us
Heaven is the dance without commotion

Love in the garden of light
Every time I see you I don't want to fight any more
Love in the garden of light
I wish you could be here beside me

I wish you could be here beside me
