Make Our Garden Grow
Let dreamers dream
what worlds they please
Those Edens can’t be found
The sweetest flowers
the fairest trees
Are grown in solid ground
We’re neither pure
nor wise nor good
We’ll do the best we know
We’ll build our house
and chop our wood
And make our garden grow
I've found this Candide lyric over the years to be very moving. Just watched this version on YouTube. It gave me goosebumps. So lovely.
