  • I will walk in the garden
    And feel religion within
    I will learn how to run with the big boys
    I will learn how to sink and to swim

    And there's talk in the houses
    And people dancing in rings
    Ah, will you close my eyes, babe?
    I can see most everything
    I can see most everything

    It's just like you said it would be
    It's Just like you said it would be
    It's just like you said it would be
    It's just like you said it would be

    I can see too many mouths open
    Too many eyes closed, it's closed
    Not enough minds open
    Too many legs open
    Tell me tell me
    Tell me
    Tell me, do
    Why listen to it, why why
    I don't see why I listenwhy why

    When I've walked in the garden
    When I'm walking off stage
    When everything's quiet
    Will you stay?
    Will you be my lover?
    Will you be my mama?
    I said will you be my lover?
    I said will you be my babe?

    When I lay down my head
    At the end of my day
    Nothing would
    Nothing would please me better
    Than I find that you're there

    When I lay down my head
    At the end of my day
    Nothing would
    Nothing would please me better
    Than I find that you're there when I wake

    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be

    Will you be my lover?
    Will you be my mama?

    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be
    Just like you said it would be Writer/s: Sinead O'Connor, Stephen Patrick Wickham
