lyrics

Her Room Is Like A Garden
Her room is like a garden adorned with scented flowers
Her bed is it an abhor and she the princess in the tower

Her skin is white like marble and round her Egyptian eyes
Her face is framed with ringlets patterning the pillow where she lies

Had we but time child, had we but time
if we had tomorrow if tomorrow were mine
You would have the season to bud and to bloom but summer is fleeting
As the rose’s perfume

Her room it is an orchard, a glade of tangled vines
Where on a verdant blanket she so gracefully reclines.

Paul: I have never forgotten a fleeting glimpse I had as a child into a young girl’s bedroom and the feeling then that girls were exotic creatures beyond our understanding.

Paul Roland recommends:

Robyn Hitchcock
by Robyn Hitchcock

I shared a label with the Soft Boys back in the early 80s and was seduced by 'Underwater Moonlight' on first hearing. Privileged to have Robyn guest on my 'The Puppet Master' and 'Mad Elaine'). Paul Roland

London Stone
by Bevis Frond

This man never releases a weak album. Love them all. Heavy stoner rock to whimsical psych, bursting at the seams with strong songs and totally wired psych guitar. A killer, no filler. Paul Roland

Bolan's Litterbox
by T.Rex

For almost 50 years Marc inspired and energised me. Privileged to have been managed at one time by June and to have written 4 biogs - trying to capture what made him my main man. Paul Roland
