Story behind the song

my childhood

Lyrics

WEEDS
2008 April Higuera

My little sister dressed up for Mother’s Day
She picked a perfect dandelion bouquet
So proud in that meadow she said mother I love you
Like these flowers you’re so beautiful
Mother smiled but then told her about
How those were weeds that most people throw out
It took some time for her heart to heal
From her mistake and know what mother was tryin’ to say

Yes, she loves pretty roses

But that's not all that she needs

There’s more beauty in nature

Than we take time to see

She says perfect on the outside

doesn't make us complete

when God planted his blessed garden

he didn't throw out the weeds
	
I tell this story so that you can believe
When my sister tells you you’re the man of her dreams
Just give her daisies and sweatpea 
And offer your heart like a diamond ring

Yes, she loves pretty roses
But that's not all that she needs
There’s more beauty in human nature
Than we take time to see
She wants to know you on the inside
And that you heart’s rooted deep
When she tends to her precious garden
She’ll never throw out the weeds

She believes God has created everything
There’s nothing to throw out
What would she keep

Yes, she loves pretty roses
She loves dandelion tea
She says sometimes we pass over
The most wonderful things
She says perfect on the outside
Doesn’t make us complete
God planted his blessed garden
Full of beautiful weeds

God planted his perfect garden
Full of beautiful weeds
