Textes et Paroles de John's Garden

Farmer John wandered backAnd when he reached the pumpkin patch, began to speakHe said the weather's getting colderSummer's over and it's almost HalloweenThat's the day, the reason you were raisedWhen everything about your life will changeYou will have eyes to see, and for that night, you'll beA bright lamp burning in the darknessBut remember that candle shines for only the briefest timeIn a jack-o-lantern's heartThe pumpkins held a meeting thenSome were very apprehensive and afraidCould this really happen to us?What could be the meaning? is what they were sayingThis is home, it's all we've ever knownThen one bold, outspoken pumpkin spokeHe saidI don't need eyes to see , it sounds like a lie to meI like it just fine here in John's gardenAnd remember that candle shines for only the briefest timeIn a jack-o-lantern's heartThere is much to ask and to ponder in the pumpkin patchWhen imposing old October shows up at lastThen a pumpkin from the farther endWho had been silent up till thenOver the commotion, saidWhat would you rather have my friendsA chance to shine, or die here on the vine?The better way seems very plain to meYou will have eyes to see, and for that night, you'll beA bright lamp burning in the darknessAnd maybe that candle shines for only the briefest timeIn a jack-o-lantern's heartOh, but one goblin's smile should make it all well worth whileYou know you might even see the starlightAnd knowing that time is brief, makes it that much more sweetWhen you have a jack-o-lantern's heart
