lyrics

Go dig a hole and plant a seed
Beware, you don’t know what it needs
Some face the thorns and other trials
Some find the good old earth; it sometimes takes a while

I laid my love on rocky ground
And then the sun came beating down
It nearly dried my little leaves away
But I’m still standing here today

For rivers change and mountains fall
A little faith: a miracle.
The earth will break. A tree will rise
Out of the cracks and reach up to the skies

I laid my love on rocky ground
And now my heart is sinking down
I’m praying for a taste of rain
To feel that rush of life again

[CHORUS]

I know below that rocky crust
The good old earth is there for us
I laid my love down on the rocky ground
Cause there’s a good love and it’s gotta be found

[CHORUS]
