Why don't you understand that I'm over your spell
Why don't you recognize I've come out of my shell
Why don't you light a flame which burns with command
Cuz you don't, why don't you understand

Why don't you understand that I've figured it out
There was a time you knew what I was all about
But you don't really think I'll keep holding your hand
When you don't, why don't you understand

Cuz it's my life too and I'm losing to you
All the things that I've said just went over your head
They fell to the ground, came crashing around
All the world that I've known in this garden
you have grown

Why don't you understand that you're losing face
And all the thrill has gone out of your little chase
I don't care anymore about things that we planned
Cuz you don't, why don't you understand

Cuz it's my life too and I'm losing to you
All the things that I've said just went over your head
They fell to the ground, came crashing around
All the world that I've known in this garden
you have grown

Petals keep falling, they're surrounding and sprawling
Through a world I just don't recognize
In this garden you've kept us while I've slowly lost all trust
In the promise once seen in your eyes

Cuz it's my life too and I'm losing to you
All the things that I've said, went over your head
They fell to the ground, all crashing around
All the world that I've known in this garden
you have grown
In this garden you have grown
In this garden you have grown
