본 조비
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 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 the truth
and what you mean to me
And the truth is
baby you're all that I need
I want you to lay
down on a bed of roses
For to nite I sleep
on a bed on 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
step that I take is on my
way home
A king's ransom in dimes
I'd give 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 you to lay
down on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep
on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close
as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
on a bed of roses
Well the hotel bar hang
over whiskey's gone dry
The bar keeper's wig's
crooked And she's
giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard
I think I died
Now you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking
about you While my
mistress she calls me To
stand in her spotlight
again Tonite 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 you to lay
down on a bed of roses
For to nite I sleep
on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close
as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
I want you to lay
down on a bed of roses
For to nite I sleep
on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close
as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
a bed of roses
