Growing A Garden Lyrics
Fade in on a hard day
Heavy eyes, there’s a light from the doorway
It’s too hard to see now
Closeup and a cutaway
Freeze frame to a man on the corner, sign says
The sun will come out
As you’re looking from the window
There’s a bird on the wire
Singin’ maybe tomorrow
Standing in an empty apartment
Hanging up the phone from a hard goodbye
For every tear you cried
There was a reason why
If you knew you were growing a garden
Buried in the ground of some grand design
On the nights you would wonder
What time would uncover
If you
Only knew
You were growing a garden
Oh, what you would you do with that
Would you laugh would you cry
Would you sigh and accept it
Or just pray for some rain
Someday
Yeah you’re carrying the feeling
The weight of desire
Maybe tomorrow
Standing in an empty apartment
Hanging up the phone from a hard goodbye
For every tear you cried
There was a reason why
If you knew you were growing a garden
Buried in the ground of a grand design
On the nights you would wonder
What time would uncover
If you
Only knew
You were growing a garden
And it hit you on the drive
You just cried and cried and cried
For miles and miles and miles
Just couldn’t stop
And it totaled who you are
It’s finally settled in
For every broken part
You were growing a garden
(You were growing a garden)
Here in my garden
All of my flowers grow
Here in my garden
