SHE PLANTED ROSES THE FIRST YEAR WE MARRIED
IT SOON WAS A GARDEN WE'D GO WALKING THROUGH
MY JOB KEPT ME TRAVLING BUT WHEN I CAME HOME TO HEAVEN
SHE WAS SO PROUD TO SHOW ME ALL THE LOVE THAT SHE GREW
I HEARD HER TALKING ONE DAY TO A OLD FRIEND
SHE SAID I DON'T WANT TO HURT HIM BUT IT'S OUT OF CONTROL
I FEEL SO GUILTY 'CAUSE HE'LL BE SO HELPLESS
HE WON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I JUST GOT TO GO.
NOW I COME TO THE GARDEN ALONE
ALL MY REASONS I ONCE HAD FOR LIVING ARE GONE
SOMETIMES WHEN I FEEL LIKE I JUST CANT GO ON
I COME TO THE GARDEN ALONE.
NO ONE CAN IMAGINE JUST HOW MUCH I MISS HER
I'D GIVE UP THIS WHOLE WORLD TO ONCE MORE HOLD HER NEAR
IT'S JUST BEYOND ME ON WHY GOD TOOK HER FROM ME
I BET THE FLOWERS IN HEAVEN ARE LOOKING BETTER THIS YEAR.
WHERE THE DEW KISSED THE ROSES
WHERE WEEDS NOW HAVE GROWN...
