All She Wanted Was Roses
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
Oh I knew that daisies wouldn't do
Marigold's would make her feel blue
I just could not bring myself
To see this one through
I knew it all along
I strung her along
And now she's too far gone and
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even give her that
Thought I could give the world to her
A private chef and a chauffeur
Since I keep living these songs that I sing
Damn sure not a damned ol' diamond ring
Didn't take me much time
Didn't even drop a dime
And loving me is an uphill climb and
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
She ain't never coming back
She wanted roses
Couldn't even get her that
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
Oh I knew that daisies wouldn't do
Marigold's would make her feel blue
I just could not bring myself
To see this one through
I knew it all along
I strung her along
And now she's too far gone and
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even give her that
Thought I could give the world to her
A private chef and a chauffeur
Since I keep living these songs that I sing
Damn sure not a damned ol' diamond ring
Didn't take me much time
Didn't even drop a dime
And loving me is an uphill climb and
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
I left her standing broken-hearted
Crying on her doormat
But I couldn't leave her standing right there
Sobbing her tears
Crying, wishing, wanting me back
All she wanted was roses
I couldn't even get her that
She ain't never coming back
She wanted roses
Couldn't even get her that
