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
