Lyrics
Plant A Seed
Darryl Retter/Brandon Jarrett
VERSE ONE
I've seen a lot in this old life of mine, uh hmm
Most of it good
But if I could impart only one piece of advice,
It would be this - Plant A Seed
VERSE TWO
You see, people come into our lives, people move out of our lives.
And some paths only cross once.
So, what part of us stays with those we've brushed up against?
Hard to tell. For most, we will never know.
So I say to you this one thing - Plant A Seed
CHORUS
We don't always see the ripples of what we say or do
All these possibilities waiting for me waiting for you
VERSE THREE
A kind smile, a simple nod
Maybe take that bold step and say "hello"
We never really know what may come of it
But, you know, I guess that's just for the best
VERSE FOUR
And even if it isn't profound as the mighty oak
Well, that's really OK.
Because a simple gesture creates light.
And the way I see it, light's good, yeah, lights real good
CHORUS
We don't always see the ripples of what we say or do
All these possibilities waiting for me waiting for you
VERSE FIVE
Can we change a mind? Can we soften a heart?
What impact do we leave in our wake?
Doesn't really matter I suppose
There's always an opportunity, so, why wait?
VERSE SIX
When your days have become short
And you look back at what you've accomplished
How much was for somebody else instead of for you?
Balance the scales now and Plant A Seed
CHORUS
We don't always see the ripples of what we say or do
All these possibilities waiting for me waiting for you
