An English Garden - Sol Invictus

In the garden by the wall

Something moved and someone called

Why is it hollow beneath the stones?

Why is Mother crying on her own?

An english garden in the rain

Somenthing hidden and something strange

Don't go walking in the woods

Yes Father dear, you're understood

An english garden in the rain

Someone whispered my name

Victoria sits upon her throne

And when we fall, we'll fall like Rome

Why can't we in the garden play?

The servants stare then look away

Why has the hall clock suddenly stopped?

Why are the French windows always locked?

An english garden in the rain

Somenthing hidden and something strange

Don't go walking in the woods

Yes Father dear, you're understood

An english garden in the rain

Someone whispered my name

Victoria sits upon her throne

And when we fall, we'll fall like Rome

Why was the governess sent away?

Why won't any of the servants stay?

Is that thunder overhead?

And who's that standing by my bed?

An english garden in the rain

Somenthing hidden and something strange

Don't go walking in the woods

Yes Father dear, you're understood

An english garden in the rain

Someone whispered my name

Victoria sits upon her throne

And when we fall, we'll fall like Rome
