The Garden (2023)

[Verse 1]

In the time of the harvest, the leaves fallin' down

I held what my true love could reap from the ground

But the bounty of a garden can all rot away

Without love and protection and a hard will to stay

[Chorus]

I'll never have a garden again

Where I fall to my knees and work with the land

Now I'm just prayin' with two dirty hands

I'll never, no, never have a garden again

[Verse 2]

For the land, it can dry up and seasons will change

A weak love will falter and hearts rearrange

Gardens need sunshine and gardens need rain

And my tears arе too salty to water the garden

[Chorus]

But I'm drеamin' of a garden again

Where I fall to my knees and work with the land

'Til then, I'll be prayin' with two dirty hands

I'm dreamin', yes, dreamin' of a garden again

[Verse 3]

Now, me and my new love, the seeds for to sow

Are tendin' the soil and plantin' the rose

For after the winter comes springtime again

And the garden can grow like a heart that can mend

[Chorus]

I'm livin' in the garden again

Where I fall to my knees and work with the land

And I keep on prayin' with two dirty hands

I'm livin', yes, livin' in the garden again

I'm livin', yes, livin' in the garden again
