Bed Of Roses

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 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, 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. ohh I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is And Lay you down, on a bed of roses Verse two 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'd 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. ohh I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is And Lay you down, on a bed of roses Well this hotel bars hangover whiskey's gone dry The barkepper's wig's crooked, and she's giving me the eye Well I might've said yes, but I laughed so hard I think I died oh yeah Interlude: Silence 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 its 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. ohh I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is And Lay you down, on a bed of roses I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses For Tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails. ohh I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is And Lay you down, on a bed of roses
