Courtyard Lyrics
Said he'd build me a courtyard
He promised he would
And spend time in my courtyard
Whenever he could
In the corner, a tall tree
So shady and cool
And a white marble fountain
In a clear sparkling pool
A lovely stone courtyard
With a lacy iron gate
And a bountiful garden
Where I could wait
Yes, he built me a courtyard
Like he promised he would
And I know that he'd come to my side
He would if he could
Patterns on a courtyard floor
Illusions of all I'm living for
He promised he would
And spend time in my courtyard
Whenever he could
So shady and cool
And a white marble fountain
In a clear sparkling pool
With a lacy iron gate
And a bountiful garden
Where I could wait
Like he promised he would
And I know that he'd come to my side
He would if he could
Illusions of all I'm living for
I think my interpretation would be that she was expecting her husband or boyfriend to build this Courtyard for her and possibly something very unfortunate happened to him before he could ever do it and you could hear the sadness in her voice and it was beautiful how she described how she visualized it... Personally I think it's a beautiful song but very sad in Grim at the same time
