If Roses Grow in Heaven

If roses grow in heaven, Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my mother's arms and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love and miss her, and when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy, I do it everyday,
But there's an ache within my heart that will never go away.
