[Verse 1]
Little park on the corner
Fresh paint on the old brick wall
Kid draws suns in the sidewalk chalk
Says
“This is where the trees grow tall”
[Chorus]
Green city
Breathe with me
Leaves in the lane
Roots in the street
We could build a little hope in the concrete
Green city
Stay with me
Plant one small seed where the tires used to be
I wanna watch this wild town turn to green
[Verse 2]
Rooftop rows in the evening
Tomatoes in a coffee can
Neighbors trade mint for basil
Laugh
“We’re doing what we can”
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Paint the crosswalk clover bright
Hang a garden from the fire escape
Turn the traffic into quiet time
Hear the pigeons arguing over shade
[Chorus]
