Bed of Roses
Sitting here wasted
- 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 blond gave me nightmares
- Think that she's still in my bed
- As Idream 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 it's own
- Beat in my head
- While we're talking
- About all of the things that I long to believe
- About love the truth
- What you mean to me and the truth is
- Baby you're all that I need
- I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
- Wo I wanna be just as close as the holy ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
- Well i'm so far away each step that
- I take's on my way home
- A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night
- To see through this pay phone
- 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
- Whisper baby blind love is true
- I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonight i'll sleep on a bed of nails
- Wo I wanna be just as close as the holy ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
- Well this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry
- The barkeeper's wig's crooked
- And she's giving me the eye
- Well I might have said yeah
- But I laughed so hard I think I died
- Ooh yeah
- 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
- Tonight 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 wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
- Wo Iwanna be just as close as the holy ghost is
- And lay you down
- I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
- For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
- I wanna be just as close as the holy ghost is
- And lay you down on a bed of roses
