From the recording Apricot Moon
Lyrics
I wish I had a garden without squirrels
I wish I had a garden without squirrels
I wish I had a garden
I’d sit there with my girl
I wish I had a porch for muddy shoes
I wish I had a porch for muddy shoes
I wish I had a porch
I’d sit out there with you
If wishes were like hummingbirds
Suspended in the sky
I’d fill my tiny garden up with flowers
If wishes were like hummingbirds
But I could never fly
I’d watch those tiny hummingbirds for hours
I wish I had a catalog of seeds
I wish I had a book that I could read
I wish that I had something that would show me what you want
And what you need
And I wish I had a photograph of you
I wish I had a photograph of you
I wish I had a photograph
Where I was in it too
And if wishes were like hummingbirds
Suspended in the sky
I’d fill my tiny garden up with flowers
If wishes were like hummingbirds
But I could never fly
I’d watch those stupid hummingbirds for hours
I wish I had a garden without squirrels
I wish I had a garden without squirrels
I wish I had a garden
I’d sit there with my girl
