What happened here
2
As the New York sunset disappeared
3
I found an empty garden among the flagstones there
4
Who lived here
5
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
6
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
7
And now it all looks strange
8
It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain
9
And what's it for
10
This little empty garden by the brownstone door
11
And in the cracks along the sidewalk nothing grows no more
12
Who lived here
13
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
14
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
15
And we are so amazed, we're crippled and we're dazed
16
A gardener like that one, no one can replace
17
And I've been knocking
18
But no one answers
19
And I've been knocking
20
Most all the day
21
Oh, and I've been calling
22
Oh, hey hey Johnny
23
Can't you come out to play
24
And through their tears
25
Some say he farmed his best in younger years
26
But he'd have said that roots grow stronger if only he could hear
27
Who lived there
28
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
29
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
30
Now we pray for rain and with every drop that falls
31
We hear, we hear your name
32
And I've been knocking
33
But no one answers
34
And I've been knocking
35
Most all the day
36
Oh, and I've been calling
37
Oh, hey hey Johnny
38
Can't you come out to play
39
And I've been knocking
40
But no one answers
41
And I've been knocking
42
Most all the day
43
Oh, and I've been calling
44
Oh, hey hey Johnny
45
Can't you come out, can't you come out to play
46
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden
47
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden
48
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden
