T'was just a garden in the rain
Close to a little leafy lane
A touch of color 'neath skies of gray
The raindrops kissed the flower beds
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads
A perfumed thank you they seemed to say
Surely here was charm beyond compare to view
Maybe it was just that I was there with you
T'was just a garden in the rain
But then the sun came out again
And sent us happily on our way
