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

She was working at age nine
At the flower shop in town
Working hard just to survive,
'Cause life was throwing her around

In the rose garden,
Where the rain is fallin'
And the thorns are sharpin'
Rose garden, yeah
Rose garden

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

In the rose garden,
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are sharpin'
Rose garden, yeah
Rose

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!

Yeah!

Rose garden,
Where the rain is falling
And the thorns are sharpin'
Rose garden, yeah
In the rose garden!
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Rose!
Rose
