Lyrics

[INTRO — FLOATING PIANO]

[Soft, spacious jazz piano, upright bass, brushed cymbals, distant muted trumpet. Intimate female mezzo-soprano, behind the beat.]

What can these hands do?

I can sweep a floor,

I can scrub a pan,

I can stretch a meal

Like nobody can.

I can mend a hem,

I can tend a vine,

But the rent comes due

And the baby's mine.

I've been counting every penny,

I've been counting every day.

There's got to be a little something

I can earn along the way.

The church mother's words keep ringing,

Like a bell inside my head.

Everything you need is in the garden...

But what can I grow instead?

[INSTRUMENTAL TURN — MUTED TRUMPET ANSWERS THE VOICE]

[MOVEMENT II — THE GIFT I LEFT BEHIND]

[Piano chords float; cello and saxophone enter delicately. The voice becomes more open and improvisational.]

Wait...

There was something I could do

Before I ever wore a crown.

There was music in my body

That nobody could put down.

I used to sing into the mirrors,

Sing the daylight into gold.

Before I learned to be a princess,

I had stories to be told.

Oh, that voice is still inside me.

It was mine before his name.

Before the palace, before the promises,

Before the winter came.

And nobody can take it.

Nobody can own it.

It's the one thing I brought with me

That I've never had to loan it.

[MOVEMENT III — SING, GIRL, SING]

[Gentle swinging jazz groove. Warm bass, brushed drums, piano flourishes, breathy saxophone, subtle backing harmonies.]

Sing, girl, sing...

Let the rafters ring.

I don't need a royal invitation

To share the gift that lives within.

Everything you need is in the garden,

There's a harvest in this voice of mine.

If the people need a song of comfort,

I'll be there when it's singing time.

Oh, sing, girl, sing...

Let that melody take wing.

[MOVEMENT IV — A LITTLE BREAD, A LITTLE HOPE]

[Slow, intimate ballad. Piano and bass, with delicate strings. Let the vocal breathe.]

They put a little money in my hand.

I bought some bread, I made a plan.

A blanket for my baby,

A little milk to last the week.

It wasn't gold, it wasn't glory,

It wasn't some grand royal story.

But I earned it with the gift I own,

And I brought that goodness home.

Oh, the baby sleeps a little warmer.

There's a fire against the cold.

And I feel a little taller

Than the girl I was before.

[MOVEMENT V — THE GARDEN IS GROWING]

[The opening piano motif returns. The ensemble gradually blooms, with rich jazz harmonies and soulful vocal improvisation.]

Everything you need is in the garden,

Even when the winter comes around.

There is music in the branches,

There is treasure in the ground.

I have hands that can provide.

I have a voice I will not hide.

I have a child who looks to me,

And now I know who I can be.

Everything you need is in the garden.

Every seed begins unseen.

I thought I lost my whole tomorrow,

Now I'm growing something green.

[CODA — MY VOICE IS MINE]

[Everything falls away except piano and voice. A muted trumpet responds to the final phrases.]

My voice is mine...

My song is mine...

This little life is mine to tend.

Everything you need...

Is in the garden.

*The piano lingers on a suspended chord. A final breath of trumpet. Fade into silence.*
