Garden in the Afternoon

60's psychodelic rock. Female vocal, electro-guitars, bass, drums.

[Verse 1] You drew a red sun on the kitchen wall With the heel of your hand and a paper crown The kettle kept time while the curtains breathed And the whole house tilted when the rain came down [Chorus] Turn the little room around Let the painted ceiling bloom We can take the long way home Through the garden in the afternoon [Verse 2] Your silver ring left a mark on the glass Where the afternoon folded into blue We traded our names for a handful of seeds And planted them deep where the floorboards moved [Chorus] Turn the little room around Let the painted ceiling bloom We can take the long way home Through the garden in the afternoon [Bridge] The kettle went quiet, the rain moved on You laughed at the shape of the passing clouds I held the door while the whole world leaned And your red sun followed us out [Chorus] Turn the little room around Let the painted ceiling bloom We can take the long way home Through the garden in the afternoon [Outro] Through the garden, slow and soon Through the garden in the afternoon
