Generate meaning
1
I can hardly stand the sight of lipstick
2
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray.
3
Lying cold the way you left them,
4
But at least your lips caressed them
5
While you packed.
6
Or the lip print o a half-filled cup
7
Of coffee that you poured
8
And didn't drink.
9
But at least you thought you wanted it
10
Which is so much more than I can say for me.
11
Refrain
12
It's been a good year for the roses
13
Many blooms still linger there.
14
The lawn could stand another mowing
15
It's funny, I don't even care
16
But as you turned and walked away
17
As the door behind you closes
18
The only thing I thought to say
19
Was what a good year for the roses
20
After three, four years of marriage
21
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed
22
I guess the reason we're not talking,
23
Is there's so little left to say that we haven't said
24
While a million thoughts go racing through my mind
25
I guess I haven't said a word
26
From the bedroom, the familiar sound
27
Of our one baby's crying goes unheard
