but my love grew for her more each day

But her folks, did not understand,
Em

Locked in the back between
G
There stood an old brown fence
D

And although it stood between us,

this is where each day we met

I prayed of all the day would come
D

The soft touch of her hand

But if we were seen together now

No one would understand

Even though she's in
G
Where all her moves are grand

She still can't erase the love she had

For her backyard lovin' man
