Lyrics

Old Roses

C’mon now baby tell me one more time 
All the crazy things you had in mind 
Tell me now in black and white 
Why did you give me the blues? 
Why’d we stay out every night 
After finding something to lose?

A dozen old roses 
Still in the vase 
When I look at them
I see your Smiling face

Blew a tire on the highway 
We didn’t even have a spare 
A hell of a honeymoon 
In the middle of nowhere 
Grabbed your camera for posterity 
And made me pose for you 
Felt so lucky and so glad 
Stranded there with you

A dozen old roses 
Still in the vase 
When I look at them
I see your Smiling face
