She planted roses the first year we married It soon was a garden we'd go walkin' through My job kept me travelin' but when I came home to heaven She was so proud to show me how the love that she grew I heard her talkin' one day to an 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 livin' are gone Sometimes when I feel like I just can't 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 why God took her from me I bet the flowers in heaven are lookin' better this year Now I come to the garden alone Where that you kissed the roses the weeds now have grown Sometimes when I feel like I just can't go on I come to the garden alone Oh, I come to the garden alone I come to the garden alone
