Planting Time Lyrics

I lose track of minutes
I lose track of hours
Planting my spinach and cauliflower
In my backyard

Not so long ago
I watched time spin around on my wrist
But now time goes as slow or as fast
As the fish pulling on my line

Wildflowers grow
And I think they know
That their sons and daughters will appear here next year
Once again, they'll be here next year, once again

I lose track of days
I lose track of weeks
Watering my potatoes and my leeks
From the creek

I watch the birds swoop down and catch
A fish or a worm as they wait for their eggs to hatch, to hatch
The redwoods grow so slow you never know
But then rings can tell us things wе'd never know, nevеr know
Oh yeah, rings can tell us things we'd never know

I lose track of months
I lose track of years
Harvesting my turnips
And oiling my gardening shears

There's no time for love today
Too many things from above in the way
But I could have sworn that this was worth more
Than a sigh amidst a tornado

No more tears in my ears, lying awake
No more fears, restless years of heartache
But I could have sworn that this was worth more
Than a moonrock planted on the moon

But there's no time for love tonight
One last hug and kiss goodnight
