red roses won t work now

Reba Mcentire

(Jimbeau Hinson, David Murphy)

Red roses just won t work now
Here we go us 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

Chorus:
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 let me done the garden path
Just too many times to take you back
So faith is why don t you
Save the roses for you know who
I already know how long they ll last
