I put my hand by yours so you know I wanna hold it
I say my prayers at night but I know who controls it
I'm fallin' hard for you but I know I don't show it
I'll take your love for me but I know I don't own it

It's not gonna be a big production
It's not butterflies or fireworks
Said it's gonna be a tiny garden
But I'll feed it every day
I'll feed it

Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I lead you on)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, I don't mean to)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I'm scared to rush)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, but I need you)

Doesn't matter what you say
Doesn't matter what your friends say
Somethin' wrong with the pace
You fall in love every day now
I think of you when I wake, a premonition of fate
I put my flaws on display to scare you away
You put your feelings on hold
Winter came and it got cold
You wanna be sure that I'm sure, that I want you
Not just someone fun to do
Someone to hold in zero below
You ask why I'm so cold?
Iceberg heart, but look below
Iceberg heart, but look below, I'm sure

It's not gonna be a big production (gonna be, yeah)
It's not butterflies or fireworks (butterflies, I know)
I said it's gonna be a tiny garden (gonna be, yeah)
But I'll feed it every day, I'll feed it

Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I lead you on)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, I don't mean to)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I'm scared to rush)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, but I need you)

Water us so we may rise deeper in ourselves each night
Listen close and listen right
Don't wanna bring anything from our past lives, I, I, I, I
Cyphing the J down, yeah, it's a vibe
Watch all the purpose we place multiply
Slowly over time
The seed has all the information
Yeah, I really wrote a weird verse, lemme heal first
Then return to the space that we make
And you know I wake up and I give God His Praise
For making you and making your mom too
And for making me, yeah, I gotta sing His Name
I'ma pull up right now and we celebrate
Then he put the pipe down and I'm okay
So if I'm awkward just let me rock, let me be

It's not gonna be a big production (gonna be, yeah)
It's not butterflies or fireworks (butterflies, I know)
I said it's gonna be a tiny garden (gonna be, yeah)
But I'll feed it every day, I'll feed it

Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I lead you on)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, I don't mean to)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, and I'm scared to rush)
Every day, I'll feed it
Every day, I'll feed it (oh, but I need you)

Come in, the water's warm
I know my heart is slow
