[Verse 1] Raining on gray garden I watched it stain the path Mud on my sneakers Your name in the grass The sky kept folding in Like paper in my fist I stood there trying To make some sense of this [Pre-Chorus] You know I won’t fold up I’m still here, still here I kept my hope in my pocket Through the heavy year [Chorus] Gray garden, never black again (never black again) I pay attraction on my intention (on my intention) Gray garden, never black again I lean to the rain And I bloom again [Verse 2] The fence was peeling slow The rosebush kept its thorn I learned to leave the door Open to the storm I wore my heart out loud No hiding in the frame If love was on the table I brought my real name [Pre-Chorus] You know I won’t fold up I’m still here, still here I kept my hope in my pocket Through the heavy year [Chorus] Gray garden, never black again (never black again) I pay attraction on my intention (on my intention) Gray garden, never black again I lean to the rain And I bloom again [Bridge] If the clouds come low I let them come close I’ve seen the hard days pass I know what I chose A little bend A little light I plant my feet I make it right [Chorus] Gray garden, never black again (never black again) I pay attraction on my intention (on my intention) Gray garden, never black again I lean to the rain And I bloom again
