Good Year For The Roses (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:00]
I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick[00:00:10]
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray[00:00:13]
Lyin' cold the way you left 'em[00:00:19]
But at least your lips caressed them[00:00:22]
While you packed[00:00:24]
Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee[00:00:29]
That you poured and didn't drink[00:00:33]
But at least you thought you wanted it[00:00:39]
That's so much more than I can say for me[00:00:42]
What a good year for the roses[00:00:47]
Many blooms still linger there[00:00:52]
The lawn could stand another mowin'[00:00:57]
Funny I don't even care[00:01:02]
As you turn to walk away[00:01:07]
As the door behind you closes[00:01:12]
The only thing I have to say[00:01:18]
It's been a good year for the roses[00:01:23]
After three full years of marriage[00:01:40]
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed[00:01:42]
I guess the reason we're not talking[00:01:49]
There's so little left to say we haven't said[00:01:52]
While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind[00:01:59]
I find I haven't said a word[00:02:02]
From the bedroom the familiar sound[00:02:09]
Of a baby's cryin' goes unheard[00:02:12]
What a good year for the roses[00:02:17]
Many blooms still linger there[00:02:22]
The lawn could stand another mowin'[00:02:27]
Funny I don't even care[00:02:32]
As you turn to walk away[00:02:37]
As the door behind you closes[00:02:42]
The only thing I have to say[00:02:48]
It's been a good year for the roses[00:02:53]
