Bed Of Roses Lyrics - Bon Jovi

1 Sitting here wasted and wounded

2 At this old piano

3 Trying hard to capture the moment

4 This morning I don't know

5 'Cause a bottle of vodka's still lodged in my head

6 And some blonde gave me nightmares

7 I think that she's still in my bed

8 As I dream about movies

9 They won't make of me when I'm dead

10 With an ironclad fist

11 I wake up and french kiss the morning

12 While some marching band keeps it's own beat

13 In my head while we're talking

14 About all of the things that I long to believe

15 About love, the truth and what you mean to me

16 And the truth is

17 Baby, you're all that I need

18 I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses

19 For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails

20 Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is

21 And lay you down on bed of roses

22 Well I'm so far away

23 Each step that I take is on my way home

24 A king's ransom in dimes, I'd give each night

25 To see through this pay phone

26 Still I run out of time or it's hard to get through

27 Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you

28 I'll just close my eyes and whisper

29 ''"Baby, blind love is true."''

30 I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses

31 For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails

32 Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is

33 And lay you down on bed of roses

34 Well, this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry

35 The barkeeper's wig's crooked and she's giving me the eye

36 Well, I might have said yeah

37 But I laughed so hard I think I died, ooh yeah

38 Now as you close your eyes

39 Know I'll be thinking about you

40 While my mistress, she calls me

41 To stand in her spotlight again

42 Tonight, I won't be alone

43 But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely

44 I got nothing to prove

45 For it's you that I'd die to defend

46 I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses

47 For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails

48 Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is

49 And lay you down

50 I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses

51 For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails

52 Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is

53 And lay you down on bed of roses
