(Chorus:) One of these days the gig is up Shouldn't we take the time now To show our love Yeah, I got the blues again My mistake Tell me did you see the end coming Now I'm searching for a sign But looking back there're only good times Now I'm on the road again My soul aches It's clear that match won't work for me And now though things don't seem so hot I know I gave him all the love I got Bye-bye roses I got me a hand that's bitter sweet But I don't care I've known the garden Bye-bye roses I got me a hand that's bitter sweet But no regrets I've known the garden (Chorus) She was always my best friend Never late and coffee ice cream made her smile Now she's left and gone away And I'm here by myself another day And though I'll miss her to no end My heart breaks Tell me did she see the end coming At least I know it was sunny All the time that she spent with me Bye-bye roses I got me a hand that's bitter sweet But I don't care I've known the Garden Bye-bye roses I got me a hand that's bitter sweet But no regrets I've known the garden (Chorus until fade)
