The Gardener

Stories etched as wrinkles on his skin
Every day he tends to his garden
Filling the holes within
He plucks at daisies
Does she love me?
He pulls at weeds
They're so ugly

Turned his face to the Sun she'll sing 'come home'

'Cause I just wanna grow
Not impatient, but alongside you
We've got a way to go
But I know in time we'll bloom
I just wanna grow
Change like the weather, we're getting older together
I just wanna grow
I'll be patient, I'm alongside you

Youth resides in the mischief of his eyes
Laughter lines from happier times
But the garden's filled with parasites
He plucks at daisies
Does she love me?
He pulls at weeds
They're so ugly

Turned his face to the Sun, she'll sing 'come home'

'Cause I just wanna grow
Not impatient, but alongside you
We've got a way to go
But I know this time we'll bloom!
I just wanna grow
Change like the weather, we're getting older together
I just wanna grow
I'll be patient, I'm alongside you

Wildflowers bloom in spite of him
It's taken so long, but now he knows
Oh a lifetime to accept
Freedom comes with letting go
Freedom comes with letting go

Stories etched as wrinkles on his skin
Every day he tends to his garden
Filling the hole she left
He plucks at daisies
Oh how she loved me!
Leaves and weeds
Will keep him company

Turned his face to the Sun, 'I'm coming home'
