She had a cactus garden
Hidden on her city balcony
Beautiful and warm, a shelter from the storm
Looking out upon on traffic and the trees... its what I see
She had a pair of toucans
They were lounging quiet there upon the floor
As still as they could be, not listening to me, and I
Wonder, do they go there anymore?
She had a cactus garden
In the corner, far from prying eyes
I have fallen in her cactus garden
Wishing I could stay forever high
Looking at a blue and silver sky
We went to Ubatuba
And we went to Natal too
We were looking for the trees
They were burning in the breeze
Now don't know what I'm gonna do
She had a cactus garden
In the corner, far from prying eyes
I have fallen in her cactus garden
Wishing I could stay forever high
All the lovely people
On the street far down below
Now I'm looking for that upper floor
Where did that garden go?
She had a cactus garden
In the corner, far from prying eyes
I have fallen in her cactus garden
Wishing I could stay forever
Just a photograph or letter
Wishing I could stay forever high
Looking at a blue and silver sky
