Our Bed Of Roses Lyrics - Cold Hard Truth - George Jones

The morning we moved in this house you said 

Let's make a bed of roses 

So hand in hand we found that special place 

And I broke the ground 

I wiped that delta dirt from your face 

As you knelt there to sow them 

Oh, I'd give anything a mortal man could give 

If you could see them now

Chorus: 

Through the kitchen window pane, 

I can see the roses 

The ones we planted that first spring are blooming 

Like they did when you were here 

Someone's always left behind 

When the door of this life closes 

So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses 

Some days I sit for hours at the time, 

Just staring at those roses 

They seem so young and full of life, 

But soon they'll face the winter chill 

I don't know how long I can survive, 

But one thing that I know is 

Come sping time the roses will return, 

But you never will

Chorus: 

Through the kitchen window pane, 

Lord, I can see the roses 

The ones we planted that first spring are blooming 

Like they did when you were here 

Someone's always left behind 

When the door of this life closes 

So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses 

So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses...
