about

Recorded at the famous Muscle Shoals Sound in Muscle Shoals, AL.

lyrics

I wrote another letter I know she’ll never read
I keep trying to get her to take a call from me
All I want is one more minute to tell her I was wrong and I admit it

She won’t take my calls, talk to me at all
I’ve sent roses, letters, cards and emails
She’s never coming back; in my heart I know it
So why do I keep wasting roses

My life plays like a movie, she’s in every scene
Our boy's baseball star; the twins turned sweet sixteen
Every time I try to keep them in my life

She won’t take my calls, won’t talk to me at all
I’ve sent roses, letters, cards and emails
She’s never coming back; in my heart I know it
So why do I keep wasting roses

I swear I’ve done everything I can think of
How in the hell do I fall out of love

She won’t take my calls, won’t talk to me at all
I’ve sent roses, letters, cards and emails
She took the kids and left, I never would have guessed
Now the sign in my front yard says home for sale
She’s never coming back; in my heart I know it
So why do I keep wasting roses
Why do I keep wasting roses
