No Roses No More

(album: Lucero - 2001)

Ain't no roses no more
It's not like it was before
She had them tears in her eyes

Ain't no roses no more
It's yourself you adore
So just go ahead, say goodbye
You don't care if it's right
It's time to come home
Hell, that's all that you know
So just tell the truth, you're not coming back tonight

Like the waves in the sea
You won't never catch me
I crash on your shores and I'm gone
Like the stars in the sky
Plain to see with your eyes
But I'm far out of reach, too hard to hold
Now I'm getting old
There's only so much time, and I'm taking what's mine
So just tell the truth, you're not coming back tonight

All she's got, tears in her eyes
You said goodbye
She was so strong
Don't mean it's not wrong
So just tell the truth, you're not coming back tonight
You'll be just fine
