BED OF ROSES (lyrics: BON JOVI)

sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano
trying hard to capture the moment this mornin
i dont know
coz 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 wont make of me when im dead

with an ironclad first i wake up and frencg kiss the mornin
while some marching band keeps its won beat in my head
while where 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 to lay you down on the bed of roses
for tonigt i sleep 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

well im so far away
that each 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 juts close my eyes and whisper, baby
blind love is true

(CHORUS)
the hotel bar nagover whiskey's gone dry
the barkeeper's wig's crooked
and she's giving me the eye
i might have said yeah
but i laughed so ahrd i think i died

when 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 wont be alone
but you know that dont mean im not lonely
ive got nothing to prove
for it's you that i'd die to defent

(repeat refrain 2x)
