Al Cherry - This Is How A Garden Grows lyrics

[Verse 1] Nations build their citadels, world spins like a carousel Merry goes around again, history repeats itself, yes Lovers speak in poetry, prophets use allegory Where one reaps, another sows Singing, this is how a garden grows [Chorus 1] Throw caution to the wind, throw it all away And leave your past behind you When it only seeks to remind you where you failed We'll reap what we've sown And we'll be singing, this is how a garden grows This is how a garden grows [Verse 2] Blessing and anathema - everything we're handed down The truth is here, for what it's worth, speaking in the undergrowth Lovers speak in poetry, this one's painting melodies Where one reaps another sows Singing, this is how a garden grows [Chorus 2] Throw caution to the wind, throw it all away And leave your past behind you When it only seeks to remind you that you didn't do well at all We'll reap when we've grown, grown, grown And we'll be singing, this is how a garden grows Singing with the angels, this is how a garden grows [Bridge] Situations, folks and things All of it, we'll leave behind Singing [Outro] When it's over, said and done Got to lay it all down
