Purple Roses lyrics Free Lyrics Provided By xee-lyrics.blogspot.com

Theres a rose bush in the garden
Been there since I was born
That celebrates its age without fear
I touch the velvet petals
And smell the breath of angels
And pick the purple roses every year
Now you think youre passed your prime my sweet woman
Your use-by date is faded and grey
But sad and sorry thoughts like that my darlin
Is throwin purple roses away

Youre tired of pretending that youre younger
[From: xee-lyrics.blogspot.com ]
When gravity is real and here to stay
So you wear your clothes more easily for comfort
You used to be too skinny anyway

Now youre looking in the mirror
A picture of your Mother
But you dont see the woman that I see
Denying grace and pride the good Lord gave you
Is throwin purple roses away

Yeah, sad and sorry thoughts like that my darlin
Is throwin purple roses away
