I stand amid deep blue water
and in my dream the wind roars
within my hand are rose petals
each one so special and unique
and I let them go in the breeze
from my hand they go drifting
while I weep, weep for them
why did I not hold them tighter
those petals in the roaring wind
they are so many of my loved ones
oh, do take these tears with you
take my forever love up to heaven
God could I have not kept one
just one of those precious rose petals
but all I have are sweet memories
and now the petals are drifting in the wind
