Murray Kyle - Planting Day lyrics

Artist: Murray Kyle

album: Up From the Ground


Sweet little angel she was only five
But she carried a vibration that was so alive
And, always searching each and every day
For another piece of wisdom to carry on her way
Into the forest, we went walking one day
Learning about the teachings of the nature way
She picked up a seed from a tree
She held it in her little hand she turned to me and said, daddy
If I plant this seed can it grow
What kind of blossom will the sunlight show
And if I drop that pebble in the sea
What kind of ripple will it bring back to me
The years moved on into the high school yard
Learning about life, sometimes it can be hard
She carried the spirit of the sunlight ray
Walking softly upon her chosen way
Some of the others in the playground that day
They were being so unkind with the things that they would say
So she walked up to the biggest boy, and looked him in the eye
And shared the message from her heart in the hope that he would realize
If I plant this seed can it grow
What kind of blossom will the sunlight show
And if I drop that pebble in the sea
What kind of ripple will it bring back to thee
She walked into the office with a streamlined submission
Of sustainable energy because that was her mission
To support the earth, and show another way
Imagine the surprise that she got on that day
The man behind the counter was 2 years from retire
He did not realize the situation was dire
Sorry lady we can't help you on this day
I wonder what his grandchildren would say
Oh yeah, oh
I wonder what they would say
Oh yeah, oh
If I plant this seed can it grow
What kind of blossom will the sunlight show
And if I drop that pebble in the sea
What kind of ripple will it bring back
If I plant this seed can it grow
What kind of blossom will the sunlight show
And if I drop that pebble in the sea
What kind of ripple will it bring back to thee
So many moons passed, 'til on this day she saw
Her grandchildren playing down by the shore
The little boy came running, to her cross the sand
Offering a pebble that he held in his hand
Hey grandma, look what I have found,
Looks like it has travelled around and around
What kind of ripple will it bring back to me,
If i drop that pebble in the sea
Now I'm not saying I'm doing it better that you
But if we put our hearts together see what we can do
For the seeds that we plant into the earth
They will germinate and bring our future into birth, yeah
Bring our future into birth
And if we plant pure seeds they will grow
Beautiful blossoms in the sunlight will show
And if we drop sweet pebbles in the sea, yeah
Magical ripples will come back
I said if we plant pure seeds they will grow
Beautiful blossoms in the sunlight will show
And if we drop sweet pebbles in the sea, yeah
Magical ripples will come back
I said if we plant pure seeds they will grow
Beautiful blossoms in the sunlight will show
And if we drop sweet pebbles in the sea, yeah
Magical ripples they will come back to thee
