Pure Land? lyrics in the garden susan tedeschi

When I wake up in the garden

Peaceful slumber wakes my eyes

The sun and moon are always present

There are no more crying people around

Love fills all up inside me

Filling my heart with wishful dreams

No more sorrow fills my canvas

Along this lonely sea

Ships fall off of the horizon

Bringing love, peace, and joy

No fire can ever harm us

Only music fills the air

Silver turquoise teardrops drip down

Into a window of your soul

Touching your emotions with sorrow

Of a thousand years of wisdom sold

Love fills all up inside me

Filling my heart with wishful dreams

No more sorrow fills my canvas

Along this lonely sea

Silver turquoise teardrops drip down

Into a window of your soul

Touching your emotions with sorrow

Of a thousand years of wisdom sold

Of a thousand years of wisdom sold

When I wake up in the garden

Peaceful slumber wakes my eyes

[end]

I know the garden is traditionally seen as Christian and Tedeschi sang in Christian gospel choirs, but imagining a perfect world, a pure land, is so fascinating to me.
