[Verse 1]
Bare feet on the dew-kissed ground
Mug of tea on the broken stone
Little weeds in a crooked row
Pull them slow, and I’m not alone
Tiny wings in the laurel hedge
Soft calls on the window ledge
Morning breathes, and it fills my chest
Here I am, and it feels like rest
[Chorus]
In the garden, when the world is still
Hands in the earth, I can finally heal
Breathing in color, breathing out fear
Quiet bloom, I’m alive right here
In the garden, where the worries fade
Sun on my face, in the gentle shade
Every small petal humming my name
I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m okay
[Verse 2]
Loose hair in a lazy knot
Dirt-stained knees on a sunny spot
Label sticks in a crooked line
Tiny tags for a future time
Snail trail on a terracotta rim
Water spills as the light pours in
I hum low as the sparrows spin
Little life in the mulch and wind
[Chorus]
In the garden, when the world is still
Hands in the earth, I can finally heal
Breathing in color, breathing out fear
Quiet bloom, I’m alive right here
In the garden, where the worries fade
Sun on my face, in the gentle shade
Every small petal humming my name
I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m okay
[Bridge]
[Beat softens, echoing vocal chops]
If tomorrow storms come crashing
These roots remember calm
Every seed I press in silence
Keeps a shelter in my palms
(la-la, stay a while)
(la-la, gentle light)
[Chorus]
In the garden, when the world is still
Hands in the earth, I can finally heal
Breathing in color, breathing out fear
Quiet bloom, I’m alive right here
In the garden, where the worries fade
Sun on my face, in the gentle shade
Every small petal humming my name
I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m okay
