featured garden tune!
someone who believes
By Nicole Alifante, Rob Riech and Isaac Raz
Verse One
I look up at the night sky, the stars glimmer on
Telling me how bright we can burn
Just an illusion, who’s right and who’s wrong
Can’t be what we’re here to learn
La la la la la
La la la la la
Chorus
Oh, I am someone, someone who believes in the rivers that flow into the seas
And the mountains and the sunshine breathing over me
Verse Two
I look into the clouds and they’re flying so high
With secrets that they’re carrying
And all the dreams unspoken, live in a sigh
And I know the world is listening
La la la la la
La la la la la
Chorus
Oh, I am someone, someone who believes in the rivers
that flow
into the seas
And the mountains and the sunshine breathing over me
Bridge
Just when I feel like nothing is exactly what it’s supposed to be
That’s when I’m thankful for the BEAUTY that
surrounds me
Verse Three
Listen to the ocean, peaceful and strong
Whispering her deep mysteries
And all the sandy footsteps dancing along
Needing only gravity
Chorus (2x)
Yeah, I am someone, someone who believes in the rivers that flow into the seas
And the mountains and sunshine breathing over me, over me, ooohhh
La la la la la la la la la

I have had the privilege of hearing
Nicole sing a few times and trust
me, when you do, it is a treat! Her
voice is really beautiful. I love and
listen to music all the time – and
singing and dancing is something
I often do while gardening
with my students. So I got this idea.
I asked Nicole if I could share a
song she wrote here on my website.
My hope is that she will visit one
of the gardens where I teach and sing with us!
