One Garden Is Enough

[Verse 1] I could chase a hundred blooms Past the fence and down the lane But I know the name of every seed That waits beneath our windowpane You bring water in a blue tin cup I turn the soil where roots can reach We make a little room for love And give it what it needs [Pre-Chorus] Let the far fields keep their colors Let the wind go where it goes Here, your hand beside my hand Is more than either of us chose [Chorus] One garden is enough for me One patch of earth, one place to be You and I, through sun and rain Tend what we have, and it blooms again One garden, growing wild and true All I need is here with you [Verse 2] Some flowers open just one day Some take years before they show We don't ask the spring to hurry We keep showing up to grow When the climbing vine leans toward the gate You tie it gently to the wall A little care, a little time Can make a small place hold it all [Pre-Chorus] Let the wide world keep its wonders Let the seasons turn and roam Every road may lead somewhere But your voice still leads me home [Chorus] One garden is enough for me One patch of earth, one place to be You and I, through sun and rain Tend what we have, and it blooms again One garden, growing wild and true All I need is here with you [Bridge] If one rose fades, we won't call it lost We saved its color in the seeds And when the cold comes through the gate I'll warm the ground; you'll stay with me [Final Chorus] One garden is enough for me One patch of earth, one place to be You and I, through sun and rain Tend what we have, and it blooms again One garden, growing wild and true All I need is here with you One garden, growing wild and true All my days, I'll tend it with you [Outro] One garden is enough Here with you is enough
