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

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

'Cause there's a rose in the garden
It will bloom if you're sure
That you pay close attention
But leave it room
