Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
You never know what grows
From the little things you leave behind
Listen...

[Verse 1]
Held the door for a stranger in the pouring rain
Called an old friend just to say their name
Told a young soul, “Keep going, you'll get there”
Then carried on like it disappeared into the air

But maybe those words came right on time
Maybe that smile pulled somebody across a line
We keep looking for the proof of everything we do
'Cause everything you send comes circling back to you

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little kindness
Every little word
Travels farther than we know
Even when it's never heard

You don't need the credit
You don't need to know
Just put a little goodness in the ground
And let it grow

[Chorus]
Plant those seeds you never see
Give a little love and let it be
Somewhere down the road
Something beautiful might grow
From a moment you forgot completely

Plant those seeds you never see
You don't need your name upon the tree
Give what you can give
That's a better way to live
Plant those seeds you never see

[Verse 2]
Somebody still remembers what you said years ago
Something you forgot might've helped somebody grow
A little bit of patience when their whole world went wrong
Might've been the reason they found the strength to carry on

We don't always get to see the harvest come around
Sometimes we're just passing through and putting something down
No applause, no spotlight, nobody keeping score
Just leaving every place a little better than before

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little kindness
Every little word
Travels farther than we know
Like the wings of a little bird

You don't need the credit
You don't need to know
Just put a little goodness in the ground
And let it grow

[Chorus]
Plant those seeds you never see
Give a little love and let it be
Somewhere down the road
Something beautiful might grow
From a moment you forgot completely

Plant those seeds you never see
You don't need your name upon the tree
Give what you can give
That's a better way to live
Plant those seeds you never see

[Bridge — stripped down]
Maybe it's a word
Maybe it's a hand
Maybe just believing
When nobody else can

Maybe it's forgiveness
Maybe showing grace
Maybe someone's darkest night
Gets lighter from your flame

And you may never know it
You may never see
But somewhere there's a forest
From a long-forgotten seed

[Break]
So plant one...
Plant one...
Everywhere you go

Plant one...
Plant one...
And let the good things grow

[Final Chorus]
Plant those seeds you never see
Give a little love and let it be
Somewhere down the road
Something beautiful will grow
From a moment you forgot completely

Plant those seeds you never see
You don't need your name upon the tree
Give what you can give
That's a better way to live
Plant those seeds you never see

[Outro]
No need to know who found the shade
No need to know whose day you changed
Just leave a little light wherever you go

Plant the seed...
And let it grow. 🌱
