Keep Our Garden Green Lyrics © Keeli belongs to the following groups:
WMGAs I observed what we’ve achieved
It suddenly occurred to me
Things just aren’t the way they should be
The Oak on Center Avenue
Became a penthouse with a view
Now all the other oaks are far and few
Every generation hands the world to the next
It’s their obligation to give back the very best
Our fathers’ fathers planted seeds
To grow the things that we would need
We forgot to keep our garden green
The rain won’t fall without the trees
We can’t clean the air we breath
We’ve been taking much more than we leave
Every generation hands the world to the next
It’s their obligation to give back the very best
What’s in store for all man kind
if we don’t change stop waisting time
Green is more than just a state of mind
Our fathers’ fathers planted seeds
To grow the things that we would need
We forgot to keep our garden green

Didn’t we just, and still they chop them down, they are doing irrepairable damage to the environment, but greed drives them on. Great writing, and so very true.

Heard the song & felt bad for the world for all the transgresses we’ve made to her. She deserves more because she’s our mother after all.

Awesome Keeli, just love the arrangement. It’s so important that we all wake up and live by these words.
