It’s a growing time It’s the springtime of the year It’s a growing time The sun is moving near It is yours and mine The days are ours to share Within our peaceful garden And this growing time so fair Caring quietly For the garden in our care It’s a joy to see True love’s blossoms growing there When you walk with me A single shadow’s thrown Across our peaceful garden And this growing time we’ve known Now the sheep are in the meadow And the cows are in the corn And if wishes were like horses we would ride Like the light unto the shadow And the blossom to the thorn We’ve come to learn we flourish side by side Side by side
