English trees in my garden
We planted seeds in a faraway land
In between the palms and the succulent grove
They lose their leaves in the winter
Mark the seasons for him and for her
Once upon a time in the fallen snow
Up against the sky made a silhouette show
England cries and she plays for him
Two chords entwined like a requiem
Although it's springtime, colour is new
In Regent's Park, I will mourn for you
And I must be wise somehow
Cause my heart's been broken down
It's so far to fall
And so hard to climb
Nothing's sadder, I know
Than the passing of time
Won't forget me
You won't forget me
English trees in my garden
Summer's missed you, my darling
And all your crimes are forgiven
Yeah, all your crimes are forgiven
And I must be wise somehow
