Empty Garden

What happened here?
As the New York sunset disappeared,

I found an empty garden
among the flagstones there.

Who lived here?
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot,
who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop.

Now it all looks strange.
It's funny how one insect
can damage so much grain.

And what's it for,
this little empty garden by the brownstone door?

And in the cracks along the sidewalk,
nothing grows no more.

Who lived here?
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot,
who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop.

And we are so amazed,
we're crippled and we're dazed.
A gardener like that one, no one can replace.

And I've been knocking, but no one answers.
And I've been knocking most all the day.

Oh, and I've been calling,
oh, hey, hey Johnny,
can't you come out to play?
And thru their tears
some say he farmed his best in younger years,

But he'd have said the root grows stronger.
If only he could hear.

Who lived there?
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot,
who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop.

Now we pray for rain.
And with ev'ry drop that pours,
we hear, we hear your name.

And I've been knocking, but no one answers.
And I've been knocking most all the day.

Oh, and I've been calling,
oh, hey, hey Johnny,
can't you come out to play?

And I've been knocking, but no one answers.
And I've been knocking most all the day.

Oh, and I've been calling,
oh, hey, hey Johnny,
can't you come out, can't you come out to play?

Johnny,
can't you come out to play
in your empty garden?

Johnny,
can't you come out to play
in your empty garden?

Johnny,
can't you come out to play
in your empty garden?

Johnny,
can't you come out to play
in your empty garden?
