~~Bed Of Roses~~

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
for 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

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 give 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
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
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
