Reba Mcentire - Roses Lyrics
(melba montgomery, leslie satcher)A soft summer evening, another time, another placeHe brought her red roses on their very first dateShe got carried away by the things that he saidTime would erase them but she would never forgetChorus:And the roses heard it allThe rose in her hair, the rose in her handThe roses in the paper on the wallTheres a story to tell if the roses could talkSomewhere close to midnight, another time, another placeShe lays in the darkness with tears on her faceWhile he talks in his sleep confessing his loveHe calls out a name that shes never heard ofRepeat chorusShe never told himShe never let him see her cryOnly the roses knowWhat she kept down insideThe years took their toll and the angels took her awayNow theres family and friends at a cold winters graveHe kneels down and whispers. youre the only love that Ive knownAs he lays a rose on a cold marble atoneBut the roses heard it allThe rose from her garden, the rose in her bibleThe roses in the paper on the wallTheres a story to tell if roses could talkWhat a story to tell if roses could talk~
