Still Life With Rose

Saw you with your uptown friend at a party down the hall
 You were looking at a picture that was hanging on the
 Wall
 The title of the painting was called Still Life with Rose
 And I remembered how Rose rescued me from your heartaches
 Long ago
 Still life with Rose is better than life with you
 Whenever babe you made me a picture perfect fool
 She's not a perfect picture and we sure ain't getting
 Richer
 Still life with Rose is better than the life I had with
 You
 She's never tasted caviar or sipped on fine champagne
 Still life with Rose is better than any artist's brush
 Could paint
 Sometimes she's hard to live with, Sometimes she makes me
 Blue
 Still life with Rose is better than the life I had with
 You
 Still life with Rose is better than life with you
 Whenever babe you made me a picture perfect fool
 She's not a perfect picture and we sure ain't getting
 Richer
 Still life with Rose is better than the life I had with
 You
 Still life with Rose is better than the life I had with
 You
