Lyrics

Oh my heart is a garden
Overgrown with weeds
I say I'll pull them tomorrow
But only if it's easy
So the thistles grow taller
And more and more entwined
While I'm trying to love you
But I can't see the sky

I'm overgrown
Overgrown
Won't you come and tend my heart

Well the first time I met you
You were out planting seeds
And as you came through the gardens
You planted one in me
Oh the sun warmed the soil
And down came the rain
But I loved thorns and thistles
More than I loved the pain
Of your loving hands tending me
I told you to stay far away

I always think I can do it
All by myself
And if I'd just try harder
I'd get back my health
But this sickness goes deeper
Than any eye can see
The only thing that can cure it
Is you fixing me

I'm overgrown
I'm overgrown
I'm overgrown
Overgrown
Won't you come and tend my heart
