I can hardly bare
the sight of lipstick

on the cigarettes

there in the ashtray
lying cold the way you

left them but at least
your lips caressed

them as you pass
Or the lip print or
the halffIlled cup

of coffee that you poured
and did'nt drink
or at first you thought
you wanted it

and thats so much more

than i'd say for me
many blooms still linger there

a lawn could stand another mowing

funnyi don't even care
a lawn could stand another mowing

funnyi don't even care
funnyi don't even care
And as you turn to walk away
and the door behind you closes
the only thing i know to say

its been a good year for the roses
and the door behind you closes

the only thing i know to say

its been a good year for the roses
its been a good year for the roses
INSTRUMENTAL
After three or four

years of marriage

its the first time that you

haven't made the bed
i guess the reason

were not talking
theres so little left to say

we haven't said
And while a million thoughts

go racing through my mind,
ifound i haven't

spoke a word
Oh what a good year for the roses
many blooms still linger there
the lawn could stand another mowin'

funny i don't even care
many blooms still linger there

the lawn could stand another mowin'

funnyi don't even care
the lawn could stand another mowin'

funnyi don't even care
funnyi don't even care
And as you turn to walk away
and the door behind you closes
the only thing i know to say

its been a good year for the roses
