Your roses

You gave me my life
Along with your love
You taught me to strive
And look up above

Then you went to your heaven
I waved at the gate
I will no more be seeing you"
But for you I'll always wait

I hope that your roses
Bloom fresh in the sky
And that your heart's the strongest
Way up high
Please be kind and forgive me
For not coming to your grave
But I hope you see me
And find that I'm safe

As a son and a father
I know I'm on the way
I keep trying harder
To finally say

The words you long to hear
Are good in heaven too
Mummy I sure do care
And I will always love you
