Honeysuckle Garden

Verse 1

White lace

Washing over the garden gate

I see the garden gate

I feel the gate

Honeysuckle hanging heavy on the vine

Silver

Sickly sweet and divine

Summer

It fades away

Chorus

Give me that soft kind of mercy

Give me that gold kind of rest

Lay your head down on my chest

Quiet now

Quiet now

Quiet now

Just love and peace for the rest of our lives

Verse 2

Blue birds

Singing soft in the cedar tree

Birds in the tree

Wild and free

Crushed velvet grass beneath my bare feet

Cooling

The afternoon heat

Still

I am waiting here for the rain to fall

Just fall

Let it fall

Chorus

Give me that soft kind of mercy

Give me that gold kind of rest

Lay your head down on my chest

Quiet now

Quiet now

Quiet now

Just love and peace for the rest of our lives

Bridge

No more fighting

No more hiding

No more crying

Crying

Crying

Lavender clouds above the old shoreline

Drink the pink wine

Be mine

Chorus

Give me that soft kind of mercy

Give me that gold kind of rest

Lay your head down on my chest

Quiet now

Quiet now

Quiet now

Just love and peace for the rest of our lives

Outro

Soft mercy

Gold rest

Quiet now

Quiet now

Love and peace

Love and peace
