Count in the Garden

[Intro] In the garden light, we tiptoe and laugh, counting what we find One by one the berries gleam, a harvest of joy in time [Verse 1] I count the apples, I count the pears, I count the smiling dew Each step here and there, a gentle dance, my heart trusts you Flowers giggle in the breeze, bees hum a sweet refrain With you beside me, every little fruit feels like a sweet refrain [Chorus] Count with courage, don’t waste a single bite Gather the berries, grapes in radiant light Forest friends, come join the cheer, let’s be merry and bold What we collect is joy, in cups of green and gold [Verse 2] One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten A ripe strawberry under the tree, the basket welcomes its friend I tuck it safe, I lift it high, I soar on wings of glee With you I fly through leaves and sun, a bright, playful fantasy [Chorus] Count with courage, don’t waste a single bite Gather the berries, grapes in radiant light Forest friends, come join the cheer, let’s be merry and bold What we collect is joy, in cups of green and gold [Bridge] Hey forest, listen up, the numbers sing in tune We share the feast with every tree, we dance beneath the moon [Chorus] Count with courage, don’t waste a single bite Gather the berries, grapes in radiant light Forest friends, come join the cheer, let’s be merry and bold What we collect is joy, in cups of green and gold [Outro] The hero and the forest cheer, forever in the glow Counting steps, counting smiles, in the valley we will grow
