(Jimbeau Hinson, David Murphy)
Red roses just won`t work now
Here we go us again
You`ve been gone and here you stand
With a dozen I`m sorry`s in your hand
Victim of your podent charms
I took you back with open arms
But along with the roses came the thorns
Chorus:
And that`s why red roses just won`t work now
Cause you`ve done too much
To talk things out
You could tell me you love me
But that`s the one thing I`ll always doubt
Red roses just won`t work now
Gone for good`s the trust I had
You let me done the garden path
Just too many times to take you back
So faith is why don`t you
Save the roses for you know who
I already know how long they`ll last
Repeat Chorus
