The Garden

What if I stepped off of the treadmill, planted roots and let 'em run?

And tried to breathe a little deeper, took a second in the sun?

I reached the summit of the mountain, I could see it crystal clear?

And taste the bitter fruit of freedom, sowed in the valley of my fears?

Ooh, ooh

Meet me there

Where tender memories sweeten just like berries on the vine

There ain't a thing that grows without gravity and time

So, you water the flowers, and I'll pull up the weeds

And spend more time laying with you, darling

Let's get back into the garden

Ooh, ooh

We'll call it "misguided ambition"

What it took to understand

That life is not to be accomplished to find the joy of open hands

Cast our cares into the clouds

Sink our feet into the mud

And if it rains, we'll dance right in it

Baptized in simple love

Ooh, ooh

Meet me there

Where tender memories sweeten just like berries on the vine

There ain't a thing that grows without gravity and time

So, you water the flowers, and I'll pull up the weeds

And spend more time laying with you, darling

Let's get back into the garden

Ooh, ooh

Let's get back to the garden

Because life is just too short to spend it chasing after wind

Ain't no use in climbing mountains just to come back down again

Ooh, ooh

Meet me there

Ooh

Meet me there

Meet me there
