A Good Year for the Roses - George Jones (乔治·琼斯)[00:00:00]
I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick[00:00:10]
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray[00:00:13]
Lying cold the way you left them[00:00:20]
At least your lips caressed them[00:00:22]
While you packed[00:00:26]
And a lip print on a half[00:00:30]
Filled cup of coffee[00:00:32]
That you poured[00:00:34]
And didn't drink[00:00:35]
But at least you thought[00:00:40]
You wanted it[00:00:41]
That's so much more[00:00:43]
Than I can say for me[00:00:44]
It's been a good year[00:00:48]
For the roses[00:00:50]
Many blooms still linger there[00:00:54]
The lawn could stand another mowing[00:00:59]
Funny I don't even care[00:01:04]
When you turned[00:01:09]
And walked away[00:01:10]
And as the door behind you closes[00:01:14]
The only thing I know to say[00:01:19]
It's been a good year[00:01:24]
For the roses[00:01:25]
After three full years of marriage[00:01:36]
It's the first time[00:01:38]
That you haven't made the bed[00:01:39]
I guess the reason we're not talking[00:01:45]
There's so little left to say[00:01:48]
We haven't said[00:01:51]
While a million thoughts[00:01:55]
Go running through my mind[00:01:57]
I find I haven't spoke a word[00:01:59]
And from the bedroom those familiar sounds[00:02:05]
Of our one baby's crying goes unheard[00:02:08]
But what a good year[00:02:14]
For the roses[00:02:15]
Many blooms still linger there[00:02:19]
The lawn could stand another mowing[00:02:24]
Funny I don't even care[00:02:29]
And when you turned and walked away[00:02:34]
And as the door behind you closes[00:02:39]
The only thing I know to say[00:02:44]
It's been a good year[00:02:49]
For the roses[00:02:50]
