You sent me roses when you said goodbye but I didn't throw them away
I planted them in my garden and I'm carrying for them every day
The roses grew perfect as perfect can be like the sweet love that we used to know
With the tears that I cry I know they won't die

I'll just wait and watch the roses grow

I'll keep them forever they're all I have left
Of the sweet love that we used to know
With the tears that I cry I know they won't die

I'll just wait to watch the roses grow
