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 and miss her And when she turns to smile Place a kiss upon her cheek And hold her for a while. Because remembering her is easy I do it every day. But there is an ache within my heart That will never go away. Peace Forever in Gods Home
