The Yellow Roses lyrics

The yellow roses, the gold wedding band The marching bouncing tuba, tequila on the sand Sunlight on my skin, paid off all my debts The upturned bucket makes a castle tower I smoke a final cigarette I remember you, your tone was somewhat preachy I am far away now, everything is peachy Weep for my absence if you wish to Weep for my sake if you insist I already cried my tears for you And now I have learnt to resist The yellow roses, sleeping like a happy child It has been weeks now since I can remember anything going wrong All creation smiles upon me, from the fruit fly to the king of spain I have been down and out before Well, never again I remember you, you lived to teach me I am far away now, your lessons cannot reach me
