The Gardens of Sampson & Beasley - Pink Martini

Under Orion's starry sky 
I lie in the moonlit garden 
Wondering where to cast my eye
For all that I see is heaven 
Oh why does it have to end
I wish we could still pretend 
You're near, just around the bend 
In the gardens of Sampson and Beasley 

Last time we were in this place 
Your face had a certain sadness 
And oh how I've wondered since 
What you've done with all that sadness 
Oh why did it have to end
I wish we could still pretend 
Our love was around the bend 
In the garden of Sampson and Beasley 

Under Orion's starry sky 
I lie in the moonlit garden 
Wondering when I close my eyes 
If I'll ever find my heaven 
Oh why will it never end
These days where I still pretend
Our love just around the bend 
In the gardens of Sampson and Beasley
