If Roses Grow In Heaven
If roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mothers arms and tell her theyre from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while.
Because remembering is easy, I do it every day,
But theres an ache within my heart that will never go away.
