A Good Year For The Roses (lorrie Morgan With Sammy Kershaw Lyrics

I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick

On the cigarettes there in the
ashtray

Lyin' cold the way you left'em

But at least your lips
caressed them while you packed

And a lip print on a half-filled cup of
coffee

That I poured and didn't drink

But at least you thought you
wanted it

And that's so much more then I can say for me



It's
been a good year for the roses

And many blooms still linger there

The lawn could stand another mowin'

Funny,I don't even care

And
when you turn to walk away

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 I haven't
made the bed

I guess the reason we're not talkin'

There's so little
left to say,we haven't said

And while a million thoughts go racin' through
my mind

I find I haven't spoke a word

And from the bedroom,the
familiar sounds

Of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard



But
what a good year for the roses

And may blooms still linger there

The lawn could stand another mowin'

Funny,I don't care

And when
you turn to walk away

As the door behind you closes

The only thing
I know to say

It's been a good year for the roses



The only
thing I know to say

It's been a good year for the roses
