I Built This Garden for Us Songtext
von Lenny Kravitz

I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us

In this garden, this lovely garden
I build a temple of love
Walk with the father, won′t be a bother
To touch the earth as it was

We'll farm the land each day
And in the sunshine we will play
Glory, glory for the day he came
Our tears had gone away

We′ll make love in the shade
And in the ocean we will bathe
Little fishies in the sea, say hooray

I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us


In this garden, our children will grow
Darlin' this is a must
We'll be so happy, our little family
So full of love and trust

And darlin′ when we′re old
We'll close the gates and lock the door
Our love will never fade away
When it′s pure it forever last

And darlin' when you′re cold
I'll hold you tight and keep you warm
Little darlin′ gonna make it through the storm
You'll never be alone

I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us

In this garden, they'll be no war
No racial prejudice
You′ll be my brother, of any color
You′ll just be okay with us


We'll live each day in peace
In hope that we will one day reach
The rest of the world
When they are ready to be teached

The kingdom will come
Thy will, will be done
On earth, as it is in Heaven, yeah

I build this garden
(Build a little garden)
I build this garden for us

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us
I build this garden for us

I build this garden, yeah
No build it, yeah
No war, no more
Never been a time
Gonna build, yeah
Yeah, oh
