Garrington T. Jones - Dead Roses Lyrics




They met at a nightclub in a county town
In a year they were married and thinking of settling down
They bought a house and made it their own
With two cats, they called it their home
And every Friday night he bought his wife red roses

After five years together they raised a family
Although money was tight, they managed happily
But when his day-job took him away
She felt cheated, people would say
"That the life they had was hardly a bed of roses"

Life's a roll-a-coaster, its one heck of a ride
But is the grass any greener over on the other side?
They spoke on a long-distance phone
And for weeks she coped on her own
And every Friday night she bought herself red roses

After twenty-five years the kids had all left home
After twenty-five years they had time of their own
But when they took his day-job away
She decided that she couldn't stay
She took-off with his friend and left him tending the roses

Life's a roll-a-coaster, its one heck of a ride
But is the grass any greener over on the other side
Now he sits quietly on his own
With memories stored on his phone
After thirty years together, all she left were dead roses
When she walked out him, all she left were dead roses
After thirty years together, all she left were dead roses
