Garden

A song about loving and doing so purely, without restraint. While this song can be for anyone, I originally wrote this as an ode to self-love–not in an egotistical fashion, but in the spirit of self-compassion despite one’s mistakes, backslides, and those twisty paths that often lead us to guilt, shame, and stagnancy. I’m still learning and maybe you are too. I think I we all deserve love on that journey.

Lead me to your garden, girl
Let me find a way
To shed this skin and step right in
Without old fear and shame

Before time becomes tangled up
Before I lose my nerve
Take my hand and comfort me
Please show me something pure

I am spoiled and blinded by
All the reasons that I’ve lied
And all the love I’ve kept inside
Is waiting for you
Wild and unafraid

No one will find us here
No reason we should hide
The open door and sky above
I let go of my pride

Before time becomes tangled up
Before I lose my nerve
Take my hand and comfort me
Please show me something pure

I am spoiled and blinded by
All the reasons that I’ve lied
And all the love I’ve kept inside
Is waiting for you
Yes, all the love I’ve kept inside
Is waiting for you
Wild and unafraid
Wild and unafraid
Wild and unafraid
