lyrics

You've got a lovely garden.
It must have taken you a while to grow it --
tall and handsome
and held for ransom
whenever I come around.
It's picturesque, that's for certain.
But as you draw the curtain closed I'm hurtin.'
Well, I've got my wild side, too, you know.

So vintage and classic
I have to stop and cough up my last breath because
as opportunity passes by
I drink in the want of her violet eyes.
You know something that I don't
or can't or won't or shouldn't even try
to discern.
When will my distant and proud heart learn?

I'm older by 4 years.
I'm older by 4 years than you.
I'm older by 4 years.
I'm older by 4 years, it's true.
I'm older by 4 years.

There's a restaurant you've never been to,
so there's a chance we could meet on a Monday;
sip soda and slip out the back door
watching over shoulders for anybody
who could get word back to you
that there's too much for us to do
that we might just have to jump and break through
that wall 'round your lovely garden.

I'm older by 4 years.
I'm older by 4 years than you.
I'm older by 4 years.
I'm older by 4 years, it's true.
I'm older by 4 years.
