《A Good Year for the Roses》歌词

[00:00:00] A Good Year for the Roses - George Jones (乔治·琼斯)

[00:00:10] I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick

[00:00:13] On the cigarettes there in the ashtray

[00:00:20] Lying cold the way you left them

[00:00:22] At least your lips caressed them

[00:00:26] While you packed

[00:00:30] And a lip print on a half

[00:00:32] Filled cup of coffee

[00:00:34] That you poured

[00:00:35] And didn't drink

[00:00:40] But at least you thought

[00:00:41] You wanted it

[00:00:43] That's so much more

[00:00:44] Than I can say for me

[00:00:48] It's been a good year

[00:00:50] For the roses

[00:00:54] Many blooms still linger there

[00:00:59] The lawn could stand another mowing

[00:01:04] Funny I don't even care

[00:01:09] When you turned

[00:01:10] And walked away

[00:01:14] And as the door behind you closes

[00:01:19] The only thing I know to say

[00:01:24] It's been a good year

[00:01:25] For the roses

[00:01:36] After three full years of marriage

[00:01:38] It's the first time

[00:01:39] That you haven't made the bed

[00:01:45] I guess the reason we're not talking

[00:01:48] There's so little left to say

[00:01:51] We haven't said

[00:01:55] While a million thoughts

[00:01:57] Go running through my mind

[00:01:59] I find I haven't spoke a word

[00:02:05] And from the bedroom those familiar sounds

[00:02:08] Of our one baby's crying goes unheard

[00:02:14] But what a good year

[00:02:15] For the roses

[00:02:19] Many blooms still linger there

[00:02:24] The lawn could stand another mowing

[00:02:29] Funny I don't even care

[00:02:34] And when you turned and walked away

[00:02:39] And as the door behind you closes

[00:02:44] The only thing I know to say

[00:02:49] It's been a good year

[00:02:50] For the roses
