Thorn Tree In The Garden Lyrics - Layla - Derek And The Dominos

There's a thorn tree in the garden 

If you know just what I mean 

And I hate to hurt your feelings 

But it's not the way it seems, 'cause I miss her 

She's the only girl I've cared for 

The only one I've known 

And no one ever shared more love 

Than we've known and I miss her 

But it all seems so strange to see 

That she'd ever turn her back on me 

And leave without a last goodbye 

And if she winds up walking the streets 

Loving every other man she meets 

Who'll be the one to answer why? 

Lord, I hope it's not me, oh it's not me 

And if I never see her face again 

I never hold her hand 

And if she's in somebody's arms 

I know I'll understand but I'll miss that girl 

Lord I still miss that girl
