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 go, well that's all that you know So just tell her true, 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 and too hard to hold And now I'm getting old, only so much time And I'm taking what's mine, so just tell her true, you're not coming back tonight Ain't no roses no more, not like it was before She had them tears in her eyes, ain't no roses no more, now It's yourself you adore, now, 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 her true You're not coming back tonight, hell, it won't hurt you, you'll be just fine
