Emma Amber - In the Garden Lyrics

I remember Disney World
The first time, I was a little girl
We met mickey mouse
Had dinner just like at your house

I remember the lake
We played in the sand
You drove us in the boat
The water was gross
But it wasn't fake

I know you're scared
I am too
This is one of those times you'll never be prepared
So let's just think
About Moose Jaw, about skating rinks
Let's think about
Birdhouses, playing on the deck
Instead of being a wreck

I remember birthday cakes
Fingers outstretched, wanting to eat icing
The memories are as sweet as the taste
When we would light the candles and then start to sing

Happy birthday to you
It was your last one, deep down I knew
All those gifts we got you
Where did they go
What are we supposed to do
Now that you've left us here alone

We were all scared
You were too
But we never could've been prepared
So let's just think
About birthday cakes in the living room
Let's think about
Grandma macaroni in the afternoon
Instead of crying because you were gone too soon

All these memories twist around in my head
Slept on the floor at the cottage there was no bed
We played
On sand hills
We stayed
Wherever you said we will

You calmed the storm
You kept us warm
You took us out to dinner
Until you got sicker, thinner
Wasting away
I always knew you couldn't stay

We'll go into the garden
I'll start crying again
Water the flowers with the tears from my eyes
We all saw this coming but it still took me by surprise
Daffodils, daisies, ornaments
Beautiful things I'll never forget

I'm so scared
Are you too
I was not prepared
So now I just think about
Visits to your house
Yeah I just think
About mouse trap
About rocking horses
About dreams come true
I just think about you
