Walking in Her Garden
Music: Carrie Jacobs-Bond (1862–1946) · Words: Carrie Jacobs-Bond (1861–1946)
Walking in her garden, Dearest of flowers
was she; Pure and sweet as the lilies Dearer
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (3:03) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Walking in her garden, Dearest of flowers
was she; Pure and sweet as the lilies Dearer
than life to me.
Just a budding blossom Who with God's love was
sent,
Seemed to me like an angel As gath’ring
flow’rs she went.
First she gathered roses, Pink roses
glist’ning with dew, Then she gathered
marguerites Asking them if they knew If her
lover loved her, And if his love were true,
And if he e’er should deceive her,
What could her broken heart do? Then the dainty
petals Told her the story of old
Till she came to the last one Left in the heart
of gold. “He loves me, he loves me not,
loves me,” That’s what the sweet flow’rs told.
