Where the Red Tomato Fell

[Verse] Out by the garden, in the early morn, I held that red tomato, fresh and warm. But as I turned to leave, my grip turned weak, It slipped from my hands, now my heart feels bleak. [Verse 2] The soil was soft where it met its doom, In that fleeting moment, became a tomb. A single tear fell as I stared below, At the shattered dreams in the morning glow. [Chorus] Where the red tomato fell, all the hopes did too, In that lonely garden, I'm just feeling blue. The simple things in life can cut so deep, Where the red tomato fell, I can't help but weep. [Verse 3] I remember planting it, with so much care, The dreams we shared, the future we'd prepare. But now it's gone, and I'm left to see, The fragile nature of what's meant to be. [Bridge] Life’s bitter lessons in a garden’s scene, Not all that we nurture turns out pristine. From the smallest sorrow, we learn and grow, In the soil of sadness, new tomatoes will show. [Verse 4] I kneel down slowly, scoop the pieces up, Each shard of red feels like a broken cup. I can't undo what's been done, that’s clear, So I'll plant another, to remember here.
