I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick on the cigarettes there in the ashtray
Lying cold the way you left ’em, but at least your lips caressed them while you packed
Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee that you poured and didn’t drink
But at least you thought you wanted it, that’s so much more than I can say for me

What a good year for the roses, many blooms still linger there
The lawn could stand another mowing, funny I don’t even care
As you turn to walk away, as the door behind you closes
The only thing I have to say, it’s been a good year for the roses
Intro
After three full years of marriage, it’s the first time that you haven’t made the bed
I guess the reason we’re not talking, there’s so little left to say we haven’t said
While a million thoughts go racing through my mind, I find I haven’t said a word
From the bedroom the familiar sound of a baby’s crying goes unheard
What a good year for the roses, many blooms still linger there
The lawn could stand another mowing, funny I don’t even care
As you turn to walk away, as the door behind you closes
The only thing I have to say, it’s been a good year for the roses
