Lyrics
YOUR BACKYARD / © 1976 James Barton
From the Tornado CD
What’s beginning to grow in your backyard?
It wasn’t there when you looked the other day
Your path was clear the other morning
Without a warning, something’s laying in your way
What’s beginning to grow in your backyard?
It wasn’t there when you looked the other day
Your path was clear the other morning
Without a warning, something’s laying in your way
And I could cry so happy
And I could sigh so glad
And I could fly forever
If I knew what lay ahead
Anybody tell me
What’s attempting to flow in your backyard?
Would you be tempted to know your sun and stars
Near and far?
My archery is all undone
Will it grow straight and tall unto the sun?
What’s beginning to grow in your backyard?
It wasn’t there when you looked the other day
Your path was clear the other morning
Without a warning, something’s laying in your way
And I could cry so happy
And I could sigh so glad
And I could fly forever
If I knew what lay ahead
Anybody tell me
What’s beginning to grow in your backyard?
It wasn’t there when you looked the other day
Your path was clear the other morning
Without a warning, something’s laying in your way,
Laying in your way, laying in your way
