Текст песни Bed Of Roses, Bon Jovi

Sitting here wasted
And wound at this old piano
Trying hard to capture the moment
This morning I don t know
`Cause a bottle of vodka s
Still lodged 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 ironcald 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 on 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 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 I m so far away that each step
I take s on my way home
As kings s ransom in dimes I d give each night
To see through this payphone
Still I run out of time

Or it s hard to get through
Til the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I ll just close my eyes and whisper
Baby , blind love is true

CHORUS

This hotel bar s hangover - Whisky s gone dry
The barkeeper s wigs crooked
And she s giving me the eye
I might have said yeah but I
Laughed so hard I think I die

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 you mean
I m not lonely - I ve got nothing to prove
For it s you that I d die to defend

CHORUS
