This is an old Elvis costello number.
Here are the lyrics. --------------------------- A good year for the roses - Elvis costello --------------------------- I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin cold the way you left them At least your lips caressed them While you packed
And a 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
But what a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowing It's funny, I don't even care And when you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses
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 running through my mind I find I haven't spoke a word And from the bedroom those familiar sounds of our one baby's cryin' Goes unheard
But what a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowing It's funny, I don't even care And when you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses -------------------------

Great Job MAn,George sang it first I believe and had a slower temple,yours was more like Elvis with the faster temple. I like both,just depends the mood your in. Actually I like the faster verson which you did . Keep it up.
Arrr This made me cry WELL SANG! I love Elvis Costello, my past game flooding back with the tears lol. Thank you much and I hope you have A Good Year For The Roses. Take care Margaret x
Wasn't it originally George Jones' song? Not to take anything away from it, but your description says its a Costello number, but he did a cover it, not the original, methinks.
Yes I do believe you are right. If you look at the first comment left on this video, they mention George Jones as the first performer, but not the writer. Apparently it was written by "Jerry Chestnut"
