Trouble with Roses Lyrics

I worked hard for that rose

You may have it when you go

'Cause it's the dreaming it lends

It's worth holding here

And when the outbound lane

Brings me trouble again

If my heart's in the wind

I wanna hold it near

Don't say no, 'cause it's not part of this show

And when the lights were down low

Your eyes were closing too

But the bar is closing

And I can leave here knowing

That the dreams are still growing

As long as you're holding that rose

Yes my pockets are clean

Though they're empty half the timeNanci Griffith - Trouble with Roses - http://motolyrics.com/nanci-griffith/trouble-with-roses-lyrics.html

I spend half times in dreamin'

At least I ain't wastin' lines

And the boys that I know

Lord their questions get old

'Cause it's the boys who ask questions

And the man who knows

Don't say no, 'cause it's not part of this show

And when the lights were down low

Your eyes were closing too

But the bar is closing

And I can leave here knowing

That the dreams are still growing

As long as you're holding that rose

Take care of that rose

It's my dream that you're holding

When you hold that rose
