to that little house in my dreams
where the sunlight dances through the dogwood trees
there is ivy on the wall
And maple seeds that fall
on that little house in my dreams
oh that little house in my dreams
I’ll strike up the fire while you whip up the cream
its lovely to be safe and warm
when it snows so much
we can’t open up the door
we’ll contemplate the birds and bees
And give our cat a bath
And we can carry groc-er-ies
Down the garden path
to that little house in our dreams
where someday together we will be
with little onions growing wild
and a funny little child
in that little house in our dreams
oh I know its only a dream
but its not as unlikely as it seems
they’ll be roses blooming there
and a happiness we share
in that little house in our dreams

The title is accurate; this is a collection of preliminary songs for Over the Garden Wall. In its short run time, it has peaceful instrumentals, tinted with a hint of melancholy, a few upbeat and humorous songs, and one that's genuinely pretty menacing.
It's fun to listen to this album and picture how it expands the world of Over the Garden Wall. Imagine the uses of these songs, either in the episodes that we have or those never made. Great album. sam_125
