A Good Year For the Roses
I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick
- 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 coffee
- That you poured and didn't drink
- But at least you thought you wanted it
- And 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 mowing
- 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 talking
- 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 crying goes unheard
- But what a good year for the roses
- Many blooms still linger there
- The lawn could stand another mowing
- 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
