Secret Garden - A Bit Of Earth lyrics

A bit o' earth, she wants a little bit of earth She'll plant some seeds The seeds will grow The flowers bloom but is their bounty What she needs? How can she chance to love a little bit of earth Does she not know That the earth is old And doesn't care if one small girl wants things To grow! She needs a friend. She needs a father, brother,sister, mother's arms She needs to laugh She needs to dance and learn to work her girlish charms She needs a home! The only thing she really needs I cannot give Instead she asks for a bit of earth to make it live! She should have a pony Gallop across the moor She should have a doll's house With a hundred rooms per floor! Why can't she ask for a treasure? Something that money can buy that won't die? When I'd give her the world She asks instead for some earth A bit of earth She wants a little bit of earth She'll plant some seeds The seeds will grow The flowers bloom Their beauty just the thing she needs! She'll grow to love the tender roses, lilies fair, the iris tall But then in fall her bit of earth will freeze and k** them all! A bit of earth. A bit of earth. A bit of earth. A bit of earth.
