Karla Bonoff - Rose in My Garden lyrics

There's a rose in the garden

It will bloom if you're sure

That you pay close attention

but leave it room

I know your heart can be opened

And like the rose, it will bloom

if I pay close attention

But leave you room

CHORUS

I'm not telling any lies now

I need you

You know how

I think I can see how to let you grow

I've got to let you go

That's my face in the mirror

It's sometimes you that I see

We've been here for so long now

I see your soul in me

CHORUS

‘Cause there's a rose in the garden

It will bloom if you're sure

That you pay close attention

but leave it room
