Good Year for the Roses Lyrics
I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick on the cigarettes there in the ashtray
Lyin` cold the way you left them at least your lips caressed them while you packed
And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffeethat you poured and didn`t drinkBut at least you thought you wanted it that`s so much more than I can say for me
But what a good year for the roses many blooms still linger there
The lawn could stand another mowin` it`s funny I don`t even care
And when you turned and walked away and as the door behind you closes
The only thing I know to say it`s been a good year for the roses
After three full years of marriage it`s the first time that you haven`t made the bed
I guess the reason we`re not talkin` there`s so little left to say we haven`t said

While a million thoughts go running through my mind I find I haven`t spoke a word
And from the bedroom those familiar sounds of our one baby`s cryin` goes unheard
But what a good year for the roses...
