Trees We'll Never See Testo

Good, sweet earth
Sleeves rolled up and hands buried in the dirt
I can see you there in one of dad's old shirts
Showing me how life's supposed to work

Good straight lines
You need seed and sweat and soil and sweet sunshine
Once those roots take hold you'll be just fine
It's a beautiful design
It just takes love and faith and grace, a little time
We're all sons and daughters
Just ripples on the water
Trying to make it matter
Until our time to leave
One day they'll carve your name in stone
Then send your soul on home
'Till then its praying for rain
And pulling up the weeds
Planting trees we'll never see

First day of spring
The whole world's waking up and turning green
And everything connects to everything
It's a beautiful design
It just takes love and faith and grace, a little time

We're all sons and daughters
Just ripples on the water
Trying to make it matter Until our time to leave
One day they'll carve your name in stone
Then send your soul on home
'Till then its praying for rain
And pulling up the weeds
Planting trees we'll never see

Statues fall and glory fades
But a 100-year-old oak tree still gives shade

We're all sons and daughters
Just ripples on the water
Trying to make it matter
Until our time to leave
One day they'll carve our name in stone
Then send our souls on home
'Till then its praying for rain
And pulling up the weeds

'Till then its praying for rain
And pulling up the weeds
Planting trees we'll never see
Trees we'll never see
