GROWING LIGHT
So you’re not what I expected
What was I expecting
Some kind of mother nature type
To rub me and protect me
Set up like a statue
Stronger than the rapture
I’m not sure what I was after
But you’re sure a much better dancer
And when we go out
The stars align so bright
You and I in the garden growing light
I find myself nicer to my brother
Thinking about my family
I’ll even call my mother
Maybe tell her that I love her
Tell her I found someone who understands me
And I’ve been thinking about that scene from Bambi
I know that’s not all that manly
But I’m like a little kid on candy
And when we go out
The stars align, they align so bright
You and I in the garden growing light
And if the stars fade away
Slip into that old, cold city grey
We can put on overalls
Paint some on the walls of your room
We’ve got two times the resilience
Ten times the affection
10,000 hours of practice
Towards that day we change direction
Turn from staring at our faces
Turn from swinging for the fences
To walking hand in hand
Facing one direction
And when we go out
The stars align, they align so bright
You and I in the garden
Growing light
