lyrics

Texas bluebell saving seeds
Wondering if she should save the weeds
November knowing all she needs
Turns to face a northern breeze

Dead roses in Momma's garden
She's gone to lay them in the ground
Come Sunday
I'll be leaving
Tell God I won’t be back around

In the clay and in the rusty water
Her mother’s only daughter
Never had a night so slow to pass
It takes a while for smoke to clear to ash

Dead roses in Momma's garden
She's gone to lay them in the ground
Come Sunday
I'll be leaving
Tell God I won’t be back around

Looking back before she shut the door
There weren’t rose petals, only dust on the kitchen floor
And on the counter a yellowed page
“Darling, don’t forget to close the garden gate”

Dead roses in Momma's garden
She's gone to lay them in the ground
Come Sunday
I'll be leaving
Tell God I wont be back around
Tell God I won't be back around
