Red Roses (Won't Work Now)

Red roses just won't work now

Here we go once 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

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 led me down the garden path

Just too many times to take you back

So faithless love why don't you

Save the roses for you know who

I already know how long they'll last

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

No Darlin' red roses just won't work now.
