Bed Of Roses
Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano
- 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 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 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
- 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
- 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
- I wanna 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
