《Good Year For The Roses(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Good Year For The Roses (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

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

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

[00:00:19] Lyin' cold the way you left 'em

[00:00:22] But at least your lips caressed them

[00:00:24] While you packed

[00:00:29] Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee

[00:00:33] That you poured and didn't drink

[00:00:39] But at least you thought you wanted it

[00:00:42] That's so much more than I can say for me

[00:00:47] What a good year for the roses

[00:00:52] Many blooms still linger there

[00:00:57] The lawn could stand another mowin'

[00:01:02] Funny I don't even care

[00:01:07] As you turn to walk away

[00:01:12] As the door behind you closes

[00:01:18] The only thing I have to say

[00:01:23] It's been a good year for the roses

[00:01:40] After three full years of marriage

[00:01:42] It's the first time that you haven't made the bed

[00:01:49] I guess the reason we're not talking

[00:01:52] There's so little left to say we haven't said

[00:01:59] While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind

[00:02:02] I find I haven't said a word

[00:02:09] From the bedroom the familiar sound

[00:02:12] Of a baby's cryin' goes unheard

[00:02:17] What a good year for the roses

[00:02:22] Many blooms still linger there

[00:02:27] The lawn could stand another mowin'

[00:02:32] Funny I don't even care

[00:02:37] As you turn to walk away

[00:02:42] As the door behind you closes

[00:02:48] The only thing I have to say

[00:02:53] It's been a good year for the roses
