Lyrics

There's a garden in France where there's love and romance and the flowers and apple trees grow,
They call it Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin, it's a secret place nobody knows.
Where the birds and the bees do whatever they please and young lovers can dream all they can,
Come with me mon amour and we'll live evermore in Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin,
Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.

We'll play every day 'til we're old and we're grey, in Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.
We'll sing and we'll dance and we'll love and romance, in Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.
While the birds and the bees do whatever they please we will stroll in the sun hand in hand.
Come with me mon amour and we'll live evermore in Le Châlet au fond du Jardin,
Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.

All of the blessings that life has to give - we'll be counting them all in a row.
Sowing the seeds so tomorrow will bring the flowers that blossom and grow.

There's a garden in France where there's love and romance and the flowers and apple trees grow,
They call it Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin, it's a secret place nobody knows.
And though time has passed by and the lovers have died and the sound of their laughter has gone,
Their love lingers on in the words of this song -
And Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin,
Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.

Though time has passed by and the lovers have died and the sound of their laughter has gone,
Their love lingers on in the words of this song -
And Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin,
Le Châlet au Fond du Jardin.
