Garden Valley Lyrics - Singles - Cara Dillon

This is really not my home 

Oh where are you my lovely Johnny? 

I'm afraid and all alone 

There is no peace for me 

I'm sitting in the stranger's room 

Playing at the stranger's table 

Shining empty like the moon 

There is no peace for me 

Chorus: 

But in the darkness struggle cold 

I think about a garden valley 

Gentle as the leaves unfold 

Singing out across the bay 

Distant and so far away 

There is no peace for me 

I'm blinded by your city lights 

I wander through these fearful places 

The colours fade to black and white 

There is no peace for me 

And these are not the friends I know 

These are not their smiling faces 

A desert that no-one should know 

There is no peace for me 

Chorus 

Now I know and feel it well 

Poor immigrants deep sunken feeling 

Standing at the gates of Hell 

There is no peace for me 

Burned out by their master's greed 

Cruel exile transportation 

Robbed of every love and need 

There is no peace for me 

Chorus
