lyrics

Golden Ivy wrapped inside me
Twists around the walls that hide me
Birds find their homes among the cracks
Fly around me, singing me songs from my past
The sun reminds even the night won’t last

Can you hear the sound of the noon bell calling
Meet me in the botanical garden
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa

Did you bring your horse
She can graze my fields
Hold your breath
Time’s ours to steal
We find a haven in the willows
Sift the dirt with our hands
Broken things get second chances
Now we wait for the rain

Can you hear the sound of the noon bell calling
Meet me in the botanical garden
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa

Break my will with rubber bands
I can show I’ll withstand
They can take me they’re uncontrolled
So cut the Ivy but spare the gold
Whoa, Spare the gold

Can you hear the sound of the noon bell calling
Meet me in the botanical garden
Whoa, Whoa, oh
Whoa, Whoa, oh

The birds claim their freedom in the sky
