-- Lyrics --

Here
Where the grass is the tallest
Lilacs all done with their blooming
Keeping your eyes closed to see it
Here
In the garden we wanted
In a dream we might not know it
Walking through, minding the old fence
On the edge of an ocean
We won’t look back
And if we don’t, we won’t be lost
I won’t look back
And if I don’t, I know I won’t be lost
Even when daylight was shortest
You were still calling me darling
Lilacs were all overgrown then
Here in the garden we wanted
In a year or two if we find ourselves  
Walking through, minding the old fence
There, where the grass is the tallest
We won’t look back, we won’t be lost

We won’t look back and if we don’t we won’t be lost
Oh don’t look back, and if you don’t you won’t be lost
I won’t look back, I know I won’t
I know I won’t be lost

I haven't heard anything as just completely perfectly formed out of the gate--every decision the right one, what to include but more what to exclude--maybe ever. Don't know who Sault is, but they do not sound like they could be anyone who hasn't paid some dues to get this good. Or signed some Satanic contracts. 100% confidence, and it sounds 110% earned.
