Lyrics of Bed of Roses by Bon Jovi
verse
Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
verse
'Cause a bottle of Vodka's still lodged in my head
And 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
verse
With an ironclad fist
I wake up and french kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head
While we're talking
verse
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
chorus
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep 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
verse
Well I'm so far away
Each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes, I'd give each night
To see through this payphone
verse
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"
chorus
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep 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
verse
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
verse
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
verse
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
chorus
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
chorus
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
chorus
On a bed of roses
Writer(s): Jon Bon Jovi
