What if I stepped off of the treadmill, planted roots and let 'em run And tried to breathe a little deeper, took a second in the sun I reached the summit of the mountain I could see it crystal clear And taste the bitter fruit of freedom Sowed in the valley of my fears Meet me there, where tender memories sweeten just like berries on the vine There ain't a thing that grows without gravity and time So, you water the flowers, and I'll pull up the weeds And spend more time laying with you, darling Let's get back into the garden We'll call it "misguided ambition" What it took to understand That life is not to be accomplished to find the joy of open hands Cast our cares into the clouds Sing our feet into the mud And if it rains, we'll dance right in it Baptized in simple love Meet me there, where tender memories sweeten just like berries on the vine There ain't a thing that grows without gravity and time So, you water the flowers, and I'll pull up the weeds And spend more time laying with you, darling Let's get back into the garden Let's get back to the garden Because life is just too short to spend it chasing after wind Ain't no use in climbing mountains just to come back down again Meet me there Meet me there Meet me there
