Trouble with Roses Lyrics

I worked hard for that rose You may have it when you go 'Cause it's the dreaming it lends It's worth holding here
And when the outbound lane Brings me trouble again If my heart's in the wind I wanna hold it near
Don't say no, 'cause it's not part of this show And when the lights were down low Your eyes were closing too But the bar is closing And I can leave here knowing That the dreams are still growing As long as you're holding that rose
Yes my pockets are clean Though they're empty half the time [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/trouble-with-roses-lyrics-nanci-griffith.html ] I spend half times in dreamin' At least I ain't wastin' lines
And the boys that I know Lord their questions get old 'Cause it's the boys who ask questions And the man who knows
Don't say no, 'cause it's not part of this show And when the lights were down low Your eyes were closing too But the bar is closing And I can leave here knowing That the dreams are still growing As long as you're holding that rose
Take care of that rose It's my dream that you're holding When you hold that rose
