lyrics

Verse 1:-

Don't throw your doubts into the garden because nothing is sure to grow,
There's no one you should pardon 'cause everybody's someone that you know,
You can bring everyone down who's been around,
We all grew up with something the same,
We all moved along in our separate ways,
We lived to fight some other day but now we know we're living on,

Chorus:-

We spent to long forgetting who we are,
But we stay the same no matter how near or far,
And in a room together we all shone out like stars,
And when we're put together we find out who we are.

Verse 2:-

Don't throw your doubts into the garden,
It's no place for leaving things behind,
The plans you made begin to harden,
It seems there's nothing left to find,
Don't turn your back on what you know,
Your history will always grow,
And you turn around you see us there,
But don't hit me with your strangers stare.

Chorus:-
(repeat)
