Bed of Roses
Sitting here wasted and wounded
- Sitting here wasted and wounded
- At this old piano
- Trying hard to capture
- The moment this morning I don't know
- 'Cause a bottle of vodka
- Is still lodged in my head
- And some blonde gave me nightmares
- I think that she's still in my bed
- As I dream about movies
- They won't make of me when I'm dead
- With an ironclad fist I wake up and
- French kiss the morning
- While some marching band keeps
- Its own beat in my head
- While we're talking
- About all of the things that I long to believe
- About love and the truth and
- What you mean to me
- And the truth is baby you're all that I need
- I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails
- I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
- Well I'm so far away
- That each step that I take is on my way home
- A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
- Just to see through this payphone
- Still I run out of time
- Or it's hard to get through
- Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
- I'll just close my eyes and whisper
- Baby blind love is true
- I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails
- I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
- The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
- The barkeeper's wig's crooked
- And she's giving me the eye
- I might have said yeah
- But I laughed so hard I think I died
- Now as you close your eyes
- Know I'll be thinking about you
- While my mistress she calls me
- To stand in her spotlight again
- Tonite I won't be alone
- But you know that don't
- Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove
- For it's you that I'd die to defend
- I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails
- I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
- And lay you down
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
- For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails
- I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
