Song Lyrics

[Bon Jovi cover]

Sitting here wasted and wounded
at this old piano
Trying hard to capture
the moment this morning I don`t know
`Cause a bottle of vodka
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

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
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and truth
what you mean to me
And the truth is baby you`re all that I need

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well I`m so far away
step that I takes on my way home
A king`s ransom in dimes give 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 flies me back to you
I just close my eyes and whisper,
baby blind love is true

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on the bed of roses

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

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 won`t be alone
To 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

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
