Here Where the grass is the tallest Lilacs all done with their blooming Keeping your eyes closed to see it Here, in the garden we wanted In a dream we might not know it Walking through, minding the old fence On the edge of an ocean We won't look back And if we don't we won't be lost I won't look back, I know I won't I know I won't be lost Even when daylight was shortest You were still calling me darling Lilacs were all overgrown then There in the garden we wanted In a year or two if we find ourselves Walking through, minding the old fence There where the grass is the tallest We won't look back, we won't be lost We won't look back And if we don't we won't be lost Oh don't look back And if you don't you won't be lost I won't look back, I know I won't I know I won't be lost
