original london cast - wick - the secret garden lyrics

Loading...

[d-ckon]
when a thing is wick, it has a life about it
maybe not a life like you and me
but somewhere there’s a secret streak of green inside it
come and let me show you what i mean

when a thing is wick, it has a light around it
maybe not a light that you can see
but hiding down below a spark’s asleep inside it
waiting for the right time to be seen

you clear away the dead parts
so the tender buds can form
loosen up the earth and
let the roots get warm
let the roots get warm

when a thing is wick, it has a way of knowing
when it’s safe to grow again, you will see
when there’s sun and water sweet enough to feed it
it will climb up through the earth a pale new green

you clear away the dead parts
so the tender buds can form
loosen up the earth and
let the roots get warm
let the roots get warm

come a mild day, come a warm rain
come a snowdrop, a-comin’ up
come a lily, come a lilac
come to call
calling all of us to come and see…

[mary]
when a thing is wick
and someone cares about it
and comes to work each day, like you and me
will it grow?

[d-ckon, spoken]
it will!

[mary]
then have no doubt about it
we’ll have the grandest garden ever seen

[spoken]
oh, d-ckon, i want it all to be wick. would you come and look at it with me?

[d-ckon, spoken]
i’ll come every day, rain or shine if you want me to! all that garden needs is for us to come wake it up

[mary, spoken]
but, d-ckon, what if we save the garden, then uncle archie takes it back, or colin wants it?

[d-ckon, spoken]
what a miracle that would be, eh? getting a poor, crippled boy out to see his mother’s garden!

[mary & d-ckon]
you give a living thing
a little chance to grow
that’s how you will know
if she is wick, she’ll grow
so grow to greet the morning
free from ground below
when a thing is wick
it has a will to grow and grow

[mary]
come a mild day, come a warm rain
come a snowdrop, a-comin’ up
come a lily, come a lilac
come to call, calling all of us to come

[mary & d-ckon]
calling all the rest to come
calling all the world to come

[d-ckon]
when a thing is wick
and someone cares about it
and comes to work each day, like you and me
i promise there’s a secret streak of green below

[mary & d-ckon]
and all through the darkest nighttime
it’s waiting for the right time
when a thing is wick

[d-ckon]
it will grow
[mary]
it will grow, it will grow!
