from The Secret Garden

A bit of earth

She wants a little bit of earth

She'll plant some seeds

The seeds will grow

The flowers bloom

But is their bounty

What she needs

How can she chance

To love a little bit of earth

Does she not know

The earth is old

And doesn't care if

One small girl wants things to grow

She needs a friend

She needs a father

Brother, sister

Mother's arms

She needs to laugh

She needs to dance

And learn to work

Her girlish charms

She needs a home

The only thing she really needs

I cannot give

Instead she asks

A bit of earth

To make it live

She should have a pony

Gallop 'cross the moor

She should have a doll's house

With a hundred rooms per floor

Why can't she ask for a treasure

Something that money can buy

That won't die

When I'd give her the world

She asks instead

For some earth

A bit of earth

She wants a little bit of earth

She'll plant some seeds

The seeds will grow

The flowers bloom

Their beauty just the thing she needs

She'll grow to love the tender roses

Lilies fair, the iris tall

And then in fall, her bit of earth

Will freeze and kill them all

A bit of earth, a bit of earth,

A bit of earth, a bit of earth
