Written for the soundtrack of Kevin Macdonald’s 2013 film How I Live Now, “Garden’s Heart” is a collaboration between Natasha Khan, aka Bat for Lashes, and English musician Joh Hopkins.
The song is inspired by the film, which portrays a couple being violently separated when World War III breaks out...

You have to fight it
Where I am you and you are me

Where I am you and you are me [x2]
We have to fight it
