[Verse 1]
Ten years from now, someone new will live in our house
Raise some kids and have the family we never could talk about
Pick a grapefruit from the tree in the backyard
By the garden that I planted for you before you broke my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
But it's alright
Over and done, is that right?
Or should I keep lying
To myself for you
[Chorus]
I know that I'll move on or something like it
Oh, and if there's better, babe, I hope you find it
As long as rain keeps falling, sun keeps shining
The seeds I planted will keep reminding you of what we had
And I don't wanna want it back
But I can’t change your mind
I'll see you on the other side of the garden
[Verse 2]
You never asked me what I wanted or my dreams
Then you built up walls and said we didn't want the same things
I guess that means you were never really about me
It's amazing that took six years to see
[Chorus]
I know that I'll move on or something like it
Oh, and if there's better, babe, I hope you find it
As long as rain keeps falling, sun keeps shining
The seeds I planted will keep reminding you of what we had
And I don't wanna want it back
But I can't change your mind
I'll see you on the other side of the garden
Ooh, the garden
[Outro]
And I tried to talk so many times
About what I knew the whole time
And you gave me just enough
To think you were still in love
But I know that’s a lie
I'll see you on the other side
Of the garden (Mm-mm)
The Garden was written by Kacy Hill & Tofer Brown.
The Garden was produced by PJ Cartwright & Tommy King.
Kacy Hill released The Garden on Tue Jul 01 2025.
[It] was written in my darkest days after a breakup and one thing I missed the most was my garden. I felt anger that the fruits and vegetables that had brought me so much joy, that I had lovingly tended to and harvested and sat with, were still in what was now his backyard, growing without me.
