Garden of Stone

There is a place I watch your flowers bloom
Flooded the fire and fed the seeds too soon
This empty garden is reduced to stone
Here I hold the love we've grown

When your heart breaks, just know I won't be far
Pick up the pieces, darling, mend your heart
Time will heal you and it's gifts bestowed
Rivers flow through this garden of stone

You're on your way the unpaved road
Finding the strength to stay behind and watch you go
It gives me peace that you'll never know
The leaves are falling in this garden of stone

I'm just a stone upon this hallowed ground
The years gone by and mother nature's found
The paths that turn became the life you've made
You'd never take if your flower had stayed

Don't be afraid to ever fall
Don't look back to where I have to watch it all
You'll never see, you'll never know
Leaves are falling in this garden of stone

I know you're on your way
I'll be holding the ground
Leaves are falling in this garden of stone

You're on your way the unpaved road
Finding the strength to stay behind and watch you go
It gives me peace that you'll never know
Leaves are falling in this garden of stone
Leaves are falling in this garden of stone
