Purple Rose (Garden Ghost)

Purple rose that wilts away
 Leaving me behind
 Because my love was there to stay
 It's up to you to find
 Purple rose please grow with me
 Along the picket fence
 Give it time and you will see
 How all my love makes sense
 Time had told us both to end
 By giving us today
 My sturdy branches had to bend
 The ground is where they'll lay
 Love was purple and purple was gone
 Now we've just got roots
 To hold what once could hold itself
 Likes grandpa's fishing boots
 Come back in the shape and form
 Of what we used to be
 Surviving every winter storm
 Someday I'll be a tree
 Someday I'll be a tree
 Someday I'll be a tree
 Purple rose that wilts away
 Leaving me behind
 Cause my love was there to stay
 It's up to you to find
 It's up to you to find
 It's up to you to find
 It's up to you to find
