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
  • It's own beat in my head
  • While we're talking
  • About all of the things that I long to believe
  • About love and truth
  • 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 tonight 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 tonight 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
  • While this hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
  • The barkeeper's wig's crooked
  • And she's giving me the eye
  • When I'm might have said yeah
  • But I laughed so hard I think I died
  • Oh 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 want to lay you down in a bed of roses
  • For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
  • I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
  • And lay you down
  • I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
  • For tonight 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
