There were days mostly nights I got by on cheap red wine,
I called my parents had a cry, almost gave up a thousand times,
But I made coffee lived to see a whole new brand of love
That had everything to do with me, my island in a flight
I grew my own roses, wasn't easy at the start
When you're not sure where home is when you're growing in the dark
Always thought I needed somebody to lay my roots for me
But I found out in the lonely and somehow in the weeds
I grow my own roses, oooh oooh-oooh oh
ohh, I grew my own roses
There were stumbles almost falls, there were boys who never called
Empty rooms I tried to fill up with tequila shots
When I found him it didn't matter if he choose to leave or stay
Cause I knew me, knew me better, at the end of the day
I grew my own roses, wasn't easy at the start
When you're not sure where home is when you're growing in the dark
Always thought I needed somebody to lay my roots for me
But I found out in the lonely and somehow in the weeds
I grew my own roses, oooh oooh-oooh oh
ohh, I grew my own roses
And he can say that I'm to blame and they can shout out my name
But I know me now, I know me now
Somehow learned it in the hurt, I got the garden I deserved,
And I know me now, I know me now
I grew my own roses, wasn't easy at the start
When you're not sure where home is when you're growing in the dark
Always thought I needed somebody to lay my roots for me
But I found out in the lonely and somehow in the weeds
I grew my own roses, oooh oooh-oooh oh
ohh, I grew my own roses
oooh oooh-oooh oh
ohh, I grew my own roses
he can say that I'm to blame and they can shout ouy my name
But I know me now, I know me now
