Letra de Bed of roses (corregida)

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
Is still lodged in 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 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 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 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 that I take is on my way home
A king´s ransom in dimes I´d given 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 just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true

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

The hotel bar hangover 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 hard I think I died

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 don´t
Mean I´m not lonely I´ve got nothing to prove
For it´s you that I´d die to defend

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
