Cook asparagus in a skillet with a small amount of water over medium heat until crisp and tender about 6 to 8 minutes; drain and sprinkle with lemon juice.

Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin.

Stir cream cheese crumbled bacon and chives together in a small bowl until evenly mixed. Spread 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each slice of bread and top with an asparagus spear. Roll the bread tightly around the asparagus; arrange onto prepared baking sheet with seam side down. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
