Soulful Ballad - Bed Of Roses

Sitting here wasted and wanted
With this old piano
Trying hard to capture the moment
This morning
I don't know
Cause a battle of vodka
Still lodged in my head
Some blonde 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 friends kiss the morning while
Sam marching band keeps its own bit
In my head while we're talking
About all of the things that
I long to believe
About lab the truth
And 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 till late
I slip on a bed of nails
Oh, 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
The step that
I take's on my way home
A king's ransom and dimes
I give each night
To see through this payphone still
I ran 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 wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight
I slip on a bed of nails
Oh, 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 to hide
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 die to defend
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight
I slip on a bed of nails
Oh, 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 fortunate
I slip 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
