Bon Jovi Duet Bon Jovi - Bed Of Roses lyrics

Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano<br />
Trying hard to capture the moment this morning I don't know<br />
'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head<br />
And some blond gave me nightmares, I think that she's still in my bed<br />
As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead<br />
<br />
With an ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the morning<br />
While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head<br />
While we're talking about all of the things that I long to believe<br />
About love and the truth and what you mean to me<br />
And the truth is baby, you're all that I need<br />
<br />
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses<br />
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails<br />
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is<br />
And lay you down on a bed of roses<br />
<br />
Well, I'm so far away that each step that I take is on my way home<br />
A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night<br />
Just to see through this pay phone<br />
Still I run out of time or it's hard to get through<br />
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you<br />
I'll just close my eyes and whisper, baby, blind love is true<br />
<br />

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses<br />
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails<br />
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is<br />
And lay you down on bed of roses<br />
<br />
The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry<br />
The barkeeper's wig's crooked and she's giving me the eye<br />
I might have said, yeah<br />
But I laughed so hard I think I died<br />
<br />
When you close your eyes know I'll be thinking about you<br />
While my mistress, she calls me to stand in her spotlight again<br />
Tonight I won't be alone but you know<br />
That don't mean I'm not lonely, I've got nothing to prove<br />
For it's you that I'd die to defend<br />
<br />
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses<br />
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails<br />
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is<br />
And lay you down on bed of roses
