If Roses grow in Heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love her and miss
her, and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day, but there's an
ache within my heart
that will never go away.
