	Story Behind the Song this lyric is inspired by 'the gardener' and by sheryl's account to me of 'lady chatterley's lover'. lawrence's gardener gets lucky, and so does mine - unlike the unfortunate horticulturalist in the traditional tale. many thanks to john eaglesham, from whom I heard the beautiful melody, and the final verse, which is from the traditional ballad Lyrics though she was firm, still his charms were strong her gardener handsome and blithe her husband weak, and blinded to his wife her candle flickrin' tae life again the gardener stands by the gate so green the broom glints yellow, in the dusk-light 'you know my heart, lady spurn me not again' says she 'I doubt I will' it's by yon garden gate so green he's laid her down in lilies white he's knitted jellyflower through her yellow hair strewed primrose on her breast the lily white shall be your smock becomes your body neat your head bedecked with jellyflower the primrose in your breast
