A Rose inside My Heart
When I don’t see you, for a day or two
I get an anxious feeling
My mind and thoughts are all askew
I find myself daydreaming
I can’t think straight
It’s hard to concentrate
I cannot sleep
I lie here wide awake
And my feelings grow stronger
Every day that we’re apart
You’re like a flower that grows inside my heart
You’re like a daffodil in spring,
A rose in summer bloom
A pink carnation in a buttonhole
You’re my priceless heirloom
When we’re not together
I find it hard to breathe
The pain is familiar
I panic when you leave
Never to wither
Never to die
Please don’t ever say goodbye
Say you’ll always be there
By my side
Yes my feelings grow stronger
Every day that we’re apart
You’re like a flower that grows inside my heart
