The Roses You Planted

Verse 1

Sunday morning coffee going cold

I still reach to call you

Your number saved in my phone

I keep it there like it might ring

The garden you planted is coming up green

I talk to the roses like they know what I mean

Pre-Chorus

Some days I'm okay

Some days I'm not

I wear your old sweater when the house gets quiet

Chorus

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

I hope that you're proud of who I've become

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

The world feels a little less warm

I carry your voice in my chest

And I'll carry it all the way home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

(Oh-oh)

Oh-oh

Verse 2

I made your cornbread from memory

Burnt the edges just like you did

The kids ask me questions I can't answer

So I tell them the stories you told

About dancing barefoot in the summer rain

About the day that you brought me home

Pre-Chorus

And I'm older now

Still a kid inside

Wishing you were here to see the life I've built

Chorus

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

I hope that you're proud of who I've become

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

The world feels a little less warm

I carry your voice in my chest

And I'll carry it all the way home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

(Oh-oh)

Oh-oh

Bridge

I know you're somewhere easy

Somewhere free of pain

I know you're watching over

Every step I take

Every step I take

Chorus

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

I hope that you're proud of who I've become

Dear momma I miss you in heaven

The world feels a little less warm

I carry your voice in my chest

And I'll carry it all the way home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

(Oh-oh)

Oh-oh
