We drove up the mountain
To a cabin in the trees
Safety's found in numbers
But I just want you with me
If I'd seen the future
I never would've left
But the world spins on, and all I have
Are the words I wish I'd said
When I think of you
I think of the garden we planted
And wonder how the flowers did once we were gone
Maybe I never moved on
'Cause when I think of you
I open my heart and I'm stranded
Amidst a sea of weeds we let grow over us
I wish we didn't give up
We both made a promise
When we parted in the rain
Distance couldn't break us
But you turned distant just the same
And months turned to years turned to
You falling out of love
And I tell myself it's for the best
While I let my heart go numb
When I think of you
I think of the garden we planted
And wonder how the flowers did once we were gone
Maybe I never moved on
'Cause when I think of you
I open my heart and I'm stranded
Amidst a sea of weeds we let grow over us
I wish we didn't give up
Give up on the mysteries we never fully solved
You knew me best, you were the one who'd never let me fall
No one else could color in the outline of my soul
Just empty canvas for a painter never coming home
And when I think about you now I know you're running wild and free
'Cause I was never worth the same to you as you were worth to me
I look around at ivy-covered walls and think of what we could've been
But I can't stay here for too long, I can't get hurt again
But when I think of you
I think of the garden
