"I Wish You Roses" appears to be a song about letting go of a past love while wishing them well. In the chorus, the singer expresses that she never thought she would be without her former lover, but even so, she wishes them love, wellness, and roses while they can still smell them. The lyrics seem to acknowledge the transience of life and the importance of living in the moment before it's too late. The line "With pretty flowers can come the bee sting" suggests that with good things in life can come difficulties or pain.
