lyrics

My mother brought me into this garden first
Taught me to weed by working deep down in the earth
And while I was clutching dirt I was struck I was hurt
All that grows so thirsts
Once my father said he would read me to bed
Worn down from the job he had to keep me fed
But I was too old and I blushing red yelled instead
Never was the same ahead
Now every night I come to town
All I ever think about
Are all the times I let you down
For all the times I let you down
Thank you Derrick Watson in a hundred years you'll be read
For shade 'neath and orange sun with a mighty pen and a level head
And although it may be little praise my friends and I think you're great
For what you've done today
Now I spend most my time in this room writing tunes
Locked up in my point of view feeling blue
But as soon as I put on my shoe and walk outside and I'm with you
That's when I learn something new
Still every morn I stumble through
A silver light so bright and true
'Til it turns a-gray rain coming soon
Yeah turns a-gray rain coming soon
