[Verse 1]
She was brought into this world
Out of a beautiful mistake
When her mom was just a girl
And her daddy didn't stay

[Verse 2]
She was working at age 9
At the flower shop in town
Working not just to survive
'Cause life was throwing her around

[Chorus]
In the rose garden
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are sharpened
Rose garden, yeah, rose garden

[Verse 3]
She was young but not naive
Always wise beyond her years
Hoping that no one would see
Every time she dried her tears

[Chorus]
In the rose garden
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are sharpened
Rose garden, yeah, rose
[Bridge]
Don't let those petals fall
Don't let them fall on you
Don't let those petals fall
Don't let them fall on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah, in the rose garden
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are sharpened
Rose garden, yeah

[Outro]
In the rose garden
(Rose garden, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Rose garden, yeah)
Rose
(Rose garden, yeah)
Rose
