(Written For - Grandpa Garabed Papelian - 1983)


VERSE 1


We are the fruit of the garden

We are the roots of the old plum tree

We are the children of God

whose spirit was captured

In the life of the man

that planted our seeds

CHORUS

Down below Down below

Go in peace and in truth and in love

To the garden that grows

Down below Down below

Our roots are steadfastedly planted

In the garden that grows down below

VERSE 2

The hands of the man

we'll remember forever

His powerful grip is one

that's remembered by all

God bless the man

for trying to be honest

Though bitterness tore his heart

for those that did fall

CHORUS

Down below Down below

Go in peace and in truth and in love

To the garden that grows

Down below Down below

Our roots are steadfastedly planted

In the garden that grows down below

VERSE 3

So we say our farewell

as we enter the springtime

And the land it will rest now

The roots remain deep in the ground

And the man that we love

has returned to his maker

He stays in our hearts

For all things they will come back around

CHORUS

Down below Down below

Go in peace and in truth and in love

To the garden that grows

Down below Down below

Our roots are steadfastedly planted

In the garden that grows down below

TAG

Our roots are steadfastedly planted

In the garden that grows down below
