Gorgeous, thank you for sharing your work! Even with a song as seemingly simple as this it takes so much effort to suss out every note and rhythm Newsom created.
I found a little plot of land In the Garden of Eden It was dirt and dirt is all the same I tilled it with my two hands And I called it my very own; There was no one to dispute my claim Well, you'd be shocked At the state of things-- The whole place Had just cleared right out It was hotter than hell So I laid me by a spring, for a spell As naked as a trout The wandering eye that I have caught Is as hot as a wandering sun But I will want for nothing more In my garden: Start again In my hardening to every heart but one Meet me in the garden of Eden Bring a friend We are going to have ourselves a time We are gonna have a garden party It's on me! No, sirree, it's my dime We broke our hearts In the war between St. George and the dragon But both, in equal part Are welcome to come along I’m inviting everyone Farewell to loves that I have known Even muddiest waters run Tell me. What is meant but sin, or none In a garden Seceded from the union In the year of A.D. 1? The unending amends you've made Are enough for one life Be done I believe in innocence, little darlin' Start again I believe in everyone I believe, regardless I believe in everyone
Means a lot and helped me through a bad patch.
Beautiful

I just saw this and I immediately burst into tears haha I am so happy
I found a little plot of land
In the Garden of Eden
It was dirt and dirt is all the same
I tilled it with my two hands
And I called it my very own;
There was no one to dispute my claim
Well, you'd be shocked
At the state of things--
The whole place
Had just cleared right out
It was hotter than hell
So I laid me by a spring, for a spell
As naked as a trout
The wandering eye that I have caught
Is as hot as a wandering sun
But I will want for nothing more
In my garden:
Start again
In my hardening to every heart but one
Meet me in the garden of Eden
Bring a friend
We are going to have ourselves a time
We are gonna have a garden party
It's on me!
No, sirree, it's my dime
We broke our hearts
In the war between
St. George and the dragon
But both, in equal part
Are welcome to come along
I’m inviting everyone
Farewell to loves that I have known
Even muddiest waters run
Tell me. What is meant but sin, or none
In a garden
Seceded from the union
In the year of A.D. 1?
The unending amends you've made
Are enough for one life
Be done
I believe in innocence, little darlin'
Start again
I believe in everyone
I believe, regardless
I believe in everyone
