Take It To The Garden
Garden of Emotions: Maygen & The Birdwatcher's Musical Journey
Lyrics
I wanna write a song for you, hope it comes easy
I have a desire to compose a song for you, hoping the process is effortless
I don't wanna write it down
I prefer not to jot down the lyrics
Wanna write a song for you, make it bright and breezy
Expressing the wish to create a cheerful and light-hearted song for you
So that you can carry it around
To make it portable for you to carry along
Take it to the garden, somewhere up a mountain
Suggesting taking the song to a garden or a mountainous place
Keep it in your memory, I
Encouraging the listener to store the song in their memory
Wanna write a love song, so that when you sing along
Expressing a desire to write a love song that invokes thoughts of the songwriter when sung
Maybe you will think of me
Hoping the listener associates the song with the songwriter
My love for you, love for you
Reiterating the depth of the songwriter's love
Deep as the river, it flows
Comparing the depth of love to a flowing river
My love for you, love for you
Emphasizing that the love is enduring and won't diminish
Something you will never outgrow
Assuring that the love is something that won't be surpassed or outgrown
It'll follow you, follow
Indicating that the love will persist and accompany the listener
Up and down, around, a-round
Describing the continuous and all-encompassing nature of the love
Follow like a shadow, wherever you go
Comparing the love to a shadow, following wherever the listener goes
I wanna write a sad song, something you can lean on
Expressing a desire to write a comforting and supportive sad song
Something that'll carry you through
Intending the sad song to be a source of strength for the listener
Wanna write a sad song, something that'll be there
Expressing the wish for the sad song to be present during difficult times
When the world is cruel to you
Offering solace when the world is unkind
When you feel your heart harden, take it to the garden
Suggesting taking the sad song to a garden when the heart becomes hardened
Hold to who you want to be, I
Encouraging the listener to cling to their desired identity in challenging times
Wanna write a love song, keepin' you headstrong
Expressing a desire to write a love song that keeps the listener emotionally strong
Only for you, from me
Dedicating the love song exclusively to the listener
My love for you, love for you
Reiterating the depth of love, comparing it to a flowing river
Deep as the river it flows
Stressing the enduring nature of love
My love for you, love for you
Repeating the idea that the love won't be outgrown
Something you will never outgrow
Assuring that the love will persist and follow the listener
It'll follow you, follow
Describing the continuous and all-encompassing nature of the love
Up and down, around, around
Reiterating that the love will follow the listener everywhere
Follow like a shadow, wherever you go
Comparing the love to a shadow, following wherever the listener goes
Mmmm, Mmmmm
Melodic interlude
Oh my, Oh my love for you, love for you
Expressing the depth of love, likening it to a flowing river
Deep as the river, it flows
Reiterating the enduring nature of love
My love for you, love for you
Emphasizing that the love won't be outgrown
Something you will never, ever outgrow
Assuring that the love will persist and endure
It'll follow you, follow
Describing the continuous and all-encompassing nature of the love
Up and down, around, around
Reiterating that the love will follow the listener everywhere
Follow like a shadow, wherever, wherever
Comparing the love to a shadow, following wherever the listener goes
Wherever you find yourself
Emphasizing that the love will accompany the listener wherever they find themselves
