lyrics

I grew lavender in my garden,
dried it in a patch of sun on my bedroom floor.
(what'd you do that for?)
Sent it in a letter to help you sleep better,
did it work?
Let's grow a garden.
Where we can watch things grow.

They paved paradise,
sunbathing in the drive thru.
All my fears in the branches of the trees
we watch the sky through.
Tell myself they'll be gone come October.
Drive around while it's hot
sadness in my blindspot,
you should've told her.

When your mother asked,
no there's no kids on the way
but the garden's doing great
great
Let's grow a garden,
tend to it every Sunday morning.

I don't write love letters to all of my friends
but for you i'll make an exception
i'll make an exception, i'll make an exception
let's grow a garden
let's grow a garden,
let's grow a garden
let's grow a garden.
