A Lot Can Happen in a Garden Songtext
von Benjamin Daniel

Someone come dig me up; resuscitate my hope
My inner child has died; his loved one had to go
I choke on a promise as the memory starts to fade
Footfalls of my Sower fading far above this grave

Tiller-torn and soil-kissed
Lifeless as a little seed
What it was ain′t what it is
But what it is ain't what will be


Last night the steps returned; my heart burned with relief
But lo, the water came to drown my last belief
I could have called Him cruel, but called to mind instead
How nothing has ever bloomed that hasn′t first been dead
Vineyards from former tombs to shame the garden bed

Topsoil and to the stars
Meekness of a redwood tree
What I was ain't what I am
But what I am ain't what I′ll be
