Strophe) 

Sitting here wasted and wounded 

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 

Think she´s still in my bed 

As I dream about movies they won´t make of me when I´m dead 

Strophe) 

With an ironclad fist 

I wake up, and French kiss the morning 

While some marching band keepsitz own beat 

in my head while we´re talkiing 

About all of the things, that I long to believe 

About love, the truth, what you men to me 

And the truth is 

Baby, you´re all that I need 

Refrain) 

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses 

Fot tonite,  I 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 

Strophe) 

Well I´m so far away 

Step that I take os on my way home 

King´s ranson in dimes 

Given each night to see through this payphone 

Still I run out of time 

Or it´s hard to get through 

Till the bird on the wire 

Files me back to you 

I´ll just close my eyes, whisper 

Baby, blind love is true 

Refrain) 

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses 

Fot tonite,  I 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 

Bridge) 

Well this hotel bar hangover 

whiskey´s gone dry the barkeeper´s wig´s crooked 

And she´s giving me the eye 

I might have said jeah 

But I laughed so hard I think I died, u  jeah 

Solo) ....

Strophe) 

Now as you close your eyes 

Know I´ll be thinking ybout you 

While my mistress she call 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 

Refrain) 

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses 

Fot tonite,  I sleep on a bed of nails 

Oh, I want to be, just as close as 

The Holy Ghost is

And lay you down

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses 

Fot tonite,  I 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
