Porter Wagoner - Roses Out Of Season lyrics

(Snow is falling on the meadow and roses now are out of season)

I just had to be with you today sweetheart cause today you seem so close

I knew you'd be excited since today's our first big snow

I built you this big snowman here cause I knew that you'd be thrilled

Though I know he's not as funny as the ones we used to build

These roses aren't as pretty as the ones I'd like to bring

But roses are out of season now and they'll be more colorful in the spring

Oh yeah I've finally got the job that we'd long been waiting for

But sweetheart it just don't seem to be important anymore

And I've finally got the pictures back that we took on vacation in May

Now I thought you'd like to see 'em so I brought them with me today

We got a postcard from that couple that we met on vacation too

They invited us down this summer so I brought it to read to you

You know it don't seem real that I'll never get to see your smile again

Never get to kiss your sweet lips or touch your soft smooth skin

And never get to laugh at those silly jokes you'd tell

And never get to buy you the perfume that you loved so well

You were so much like an angel so gentle and so sweet

And you made our home like a heaven and you made my life complete

I wonder if you hear me as I talk to you each day

Somehow I feel so close to you as I sit beside your grave

Sweetheart if you hear me and I do believe you can

Please come back and get me take me by the hand

And lead me into your world cause that's where I wanna be

Where roses are never out of season and again we can be happy
