Garden Prayer

[Verse 1]
Oh sugar sand beaches
Oh trees with the flowers that sing
Oh little green creatures
Oh library books with wings
Oh elephant shadow
Oh jellyfish in my bruise
Oh floating fog of tomorrow
Oh berry with the bitter juice

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you do me a favor?
Could you do what I can't do?
No more pixels or paper
Only you can see me through

[Chorus]
Travel to my love, tell me is she alright?
Give her my best, keep her warm in the night
Slip in her socks as she curls her toes
Tumble into the teacup and down her throat
Like the honey she pours from the garden we grew
Where the bees could tell that the winter was soon
Where we braided the grass and the hyacinth bloomed
And we planted grape seeds moon after moon

[Bridge]
And when you return
Can you tell me how it was?
Share a taste of the honey
And the bees' familiar buzz

[Chorus]
Tell me, does she remember the world that we wove
Does she still smell the flowers we grew in the grove
Does she walk in the woods, hold a hand to her heart
Visit the garden and trace the tree bark

[Verse 2]
Oh sugar sand beaches
Oh trees with the flowers that sing
Oh little green creatures
Oh library books with wings
Oh elephant shadows
Oh jellyfish in my bruise
Oh floating fog of tomorrow
Oh berry with the bitter juice
