George Jones - Our Bed Of Roses Lyrics
The morning we moved in this house you said
Let's make a bed of roses
So hand in hand we found that special place
And I broke the ground
I wiped that delta dirt from your face
Oh, I'd give anything a mortal man could give
If you could see them now
Through the kitchen window pane,
I can see the roses
The ones we planted that first spring are blooming
Like they did when you were here
Someone's always left behind
When the door of this life closes
So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses
Some days I sit for hours at the time,
Just staring at those roses
They seem so young and full of life,
But soon they'll face the winter chill
I don't know how long I can survive,
But one thing that I know is
Come spring time the roses will return,
But you never will
Through the kitchen window pane,
Lord, I can see the roses
The ones we planted that first spring are blooming
Like they did when you were here
Someone's always left behind
When the door of this life closes
So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses
So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses...

George Jones Our Bed Of Roses Comments
This album is a masterpiece.
Listening to this again 20 of December
Love this song first time I’ve listened to it 14 of December headed to Raleigh to ice Canbades
I'm still here with you Dina
Someone said "no man is all good & no man is all bad & to all of us this is true" , for me no one personifies this more than Jones , he caused himself & so many others so much Pain & misery ..............BUT also through all that . brought so many others hope , someone to identify with & a reason not to care if your called a loser , cos Jones was always called a loser ...............if george is a loser ? ...........he made something out of it & used it to give something to others , so no matter how bad a person maybe ..............they still are human & have something good to offer , Just like Old george did
See George met a good woman (Nancy) , oh no she didnt save him , she was much smarter than all that.............she made him save himself & thats all any of us can do, hey George was old when it finally came to him ............dont lose hope ............he didn't
This album should have sold millions of copies, the entire thing is a masterpiece. It would have if radio just played decent music instead of pop trash!
could it get any better than george the legend i could cry at this one
If country wasn't messed up with such stinking pop trash this song would've been #1! Its as good as most anything he ever did- just got no air play!
I worked in Central Texas.
Mike Yates my hubby
U never even asked 4 s bsndaiid! I looked an it's the same as its always been rip 😇💀💜💛🌈🌾

im sorry for your loss ann
I'm very sorry for your loss Ann. My family and I have lost my husbands mother, stepdad and his only niece since March. I think about each one of them every day. I have lost my dad, 2 brothers and a sister since 2009!!! Had 2 sisters before I was born to pass away. It's been really hard on my Mother who will be 84 years old the 15th of this month. GOD IS THE ONLY REASON SHE IS STILL HERE AND HELPS HER TO BE STRONG AND CONTINUE TO CARRY ON. GOD BLESS YOU AND I WILL SEND UP PRAYERS FOR YOU.
might sound like a stupid question but is this a breakup song or a love song
pretty sure someone died
its a love song bout his wife passing away
thank you, i had a feeling it was but just wanted to be sure
no its a song about a wife dying........its awesome
absolutely heartbreaking!!!
Best Country singer ever RIP KING GEORGE
ANOTHER GREAT SONG FROM THE BEST COUNTRY SINGER EVER XOXO R.I.P ANGEL

+Debbie Sanchez keep moving forward Debbie. Nothing can take your memories. When that day comes you'll see him again

The story of my life..miss my husband everyday every minute of my life
rip possum
We play this song to mom mother law when she went home to be with her husband . she love this song we use to listen to it all the time
trinka parthemore so did i..
mn i miss my man rip legend
you cant beat this he was the living legend
now he is The Legend
My beautiful Maggie went far away into The Silent Land on this day, 27 March 2006. Just love the emotion George put into this song - takes some of the pain away, but not the longing for her. Put yellow roses on her grave, but I can't wait to be with her again, knowing she is dancing with the gentle winds in Heaven. Thank you, David, for your kind words - hope to meet George & Nancy too - can I take my Pedal Steel with me ???
+kenny maclean Yes, a 76 year old man can still cry. Crying for the love of my life who is dying of terminal cancer. I brought her roses every day. And will until the day she dies - which will just be days. Then, I will lay them on her grave.
my condlences
sorry for your hurting friend
I will forgive you 7 idiots who don't like this song!!
Kenny, my heart goes out to you. At least you can take comfort that you had some time with the love of your life. Also, the greatest voice to ever sing country music expressed your heartache in this amazing song. May God bless you and Maggie as well as George and Nancy. George once said if you live long enough to be truly happy then it is all worth it. I hope to find that happiness one day.
ilove George
very apt words to my situation - lost my beloved Maggie in 2006, but the pain and hurt still remain. Love you until the day after forever. The roses still bloom in our garden my
darling, they will return each spring, but you will not. Yours forever, Kenny xxx.
Is it just me or is jones at his best when he sings the hell out of this song
Amazing
I always said the same thing it's something about this song to that stood out on this album
How was this not a hit for george????!!! He blasted the fuck outta this song!!!!!
me as well
K MC I love it
Thank you George Glen Jones for the years of countless hours of joy you brought to my heart. As Garth Brooks said, "Simply the greatest voice to ever sing country music". Most people say "He Stopped Loving Her Today" is the greatest country song ever recorded, but I contend that because of George's voice at 68 and this song written and produced by Keith Stegall, this may very well be the best country song ever recorded. What makes this even more astounding is that these "working vocals".
A true legend.
♥♥♥♥ I love this song soo much and loved George Jones . I'm 47 and thanks to my daddy i grew up listening to this music! May you rest in peace George Jones now your In heaven...sing w the angels. ♥♥♥
I love you George, Your my daddy's favorite country singer..! Fly high your loved. <3 Ernest Hoffman
This song is even sadder than "He Stopped Loving her Today." Gotta love a sad Country song by the best singer to ever sing one!
A 57 year old man shouldn't cry listening to a song.
george has always been able to do this to me. I remember setting in a studio at a local radio station while my dad and his band did his music. God Bless you George and tyhank you for the memories
George Jones was a true legend, and nobody will ever fill his shoes.
im in shock he was my man this sucks
R.I.P My friend, it's official he stopped loving her today :(
if it don't bring one tear then it will bring a shower i also am a Nam Vet and so
right about what we brought back not knowing
all my prayers go out to all sevice men and women and all vets
I am a Vietnam Vet. I was over twice in the early & mid 60's. As a result of exposures to Agent Orange, Asbestos, leads & other jungle related fungus & no telling what all, I brought those exposures home to my whole family. Those exposures, at the most intimate time of our marriage & having kids, caused the deseases that eventually took her. I and my ywo sons now suffer from the same. War & it's results are hell & our Govmnt, don't seem to care. Really a shame but all Vets suffer the same.Thanks
We planted a bed roses 14 years ago. She passed last September after 51 years, This is now my life.
I’m sorry
Truest love song ever ever written never to be beaten I can assure you I can picture the tears on the Rose or due all the same
anyone who know,s what real love is ,this song will torns up your heart listening to it ,
a heart felt song makes me think of my papa who passed away in 2009 a great song and brings back many memories of being a kid
@albinorhinofish definitely not just you...
My favorite George Jones song. He puts soooo much emotion in this song and it has great meaning to me...Miss & Love You Manly Nummer!!!~
No one's goin to fill this mans shoes.
I never found a George Jones song I didn't love but this is probably my favorite one (if I had to pick one...I know that is impossible really)...However, this is a very very special song and dear to my heart...as is George Jones himself!~
no one can sing a song like george
George is and will always be a Great country singer
Tremendous song from the very best country artist!
Im 34 and have a wife with 4 wonderful kids but when i here this i feel like a little 8 year old kid again! playing in grandmas pasture on a spring day and just loving life.
One of my all time favorites of his. Every time I hear it, I smile & tear up at same time. I close my eyes and still see the love of my life watering some flowers on a beautiful sunny day, smiling and at peace, and very happy, not long before his sudden death. For a person to be able to sing a song so well, it sends you to such a place is truly gifted..which is George Jones. Thanks!
As I listen to this song I can feel the wind of life blowing on my face ! I agree no mrotal man could sing it better ! GEORGE you are one of my heroes of life , thank you for all you have done .
Can any mortal man do it better?
this is golden!!!!! long live the king....
