My love for you’s like a community garden, a community garden, a community garden / My love for you’s like a community garden: it changes all the time
When weeds grow high, they try to cover up the sky / I pull them down, and plant some good things all around / When water’s low, I figure out where we can go / collect some rain / Hope we don’t cause each other pain
My love for you’s like a community garden, a community garden, a community garden / My love for you’s like a community garden: it changes all the time
I pick some fruit, I stay connected to the root / of all that lives, and all that breathes and hopes and gives / You are my friend, I hope we stay together to the end / Let’s share this ground, anchored in the joy here all around
What do you need? Less wind, less rocks, rich soil, a hopeful seed? / I’ll work and hoe, and rest in where the seasons want to go
My love for you’s like a community garden, a community garden, a community garden / My love for you’s like a community garden: it changes all the time
