Bed Of Roses

by Eric Clapton

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 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 on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on 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've 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 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
When 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
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 bed of roses

Bed Of Roses

by Green day

There's something 'bout your manner
That makes it hard to see
Just how you take advantage
Of a workin' girl like me
I've seen you set 'em up
And I've seen you take 'em down
Our love is legal tender
For your kind to pass around
Don't want your bed of roses
Don't want no handful of thorns
Don't want to be your livin' doll
Don't want to be no woman scorned
I don't want to watch you turn the page
When our chapter closes
No, I'm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
I've tasted good and bad love
In the honky-tonks and bars
I've settled for the moon
When I was reachin' for the stars
And though sometimes I have stumbled
I've been known to fall
It was always true love
That took me to the wall
Don't want your bed of roses
Don't want no handful of thorns
Don't want to be your livin' doll
Don't want to be no woman scorned
I don't want to watch you turn the page
When our chapter closes
No I'm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
Girl you better hide your love away
Girl you better save it for another day

Bed Of Roses

by Coolio

She was called a scarlet woman by the people
Who would go to church but left me in the street
With no parents of my own,I never had a home
And an eighteen year old boy has got to eat
She found me outside one Sunday morning
Beggin' money from a man I didn't know
She took me in and wiped away my childhood
A woman of the streets this Lady Rose
Chorus
This bed of roses that I lay on
Where I was taught to be a man
This bed of roses where I'm living
Is the only kind of life I understand
She was a handsome woman just thirty-five
Who was spoken to in town by very few
She managed a late evening business
Like most of the town wished they could do
And I learned all the things that a man should know
From a woman not approved of I suppose
But she died knowing that I really loved her
Off life's bramble bush,I picked a rose
This bed of roses that I lay on
Where I was taught to be a man
This bed of roses where I'm living
Is the only kind of life I understand
This bed of roses that I lay on
Where I was taught to be a man
This bed of roses where I'm living
Is the only kind of life I understand

Bed Of Roses

by Metallica

Long, long ago, where the tall grass grows
and the still air is sweet with summer flowers;
in the shade by the stream I would lie awake and dream,
and in dreaming I would while away the hours.
Long, long gone yesterday,
and the castle and the prince and the God to whom I prayed.
Well, I made, and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses.
I'm tired of trying to be free.
Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses.
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
Well, I wasted years,
all the useless, bitter tears.
If I'd known I'd have stopped it at the start.
I knew life was long,
and I knew life could go wrong,
but I never knew my life would break my heart.
Dreams die harder than pride.
I have learned my lesson well.
I will put them both aside.
'Cause I made and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses.
I'm tired and I'm dying to be free.
Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses.
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
Roses die, and all the fairy tales are lies,
and I guess that's just too bad for poor old me.
'Cause I made, and I'm gonna lie in my bed of roses.
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.

Bed Of Roses

by Dido

Where do you stand when it's all over
Washed from the earth
And down to the sea
Do you lie in a bed of roses
Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now
I see your shadow knocking at my door
All plastic face and shaking hands
Now how much space could ever hold your here
Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now
Where do you stand when it's all over
Washed from the earth
And down to the sea
Do you lie in a bed of roses
Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now
Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now

Bed Of Roses

by Blue october

On a dead end street
In a dead end town
There's a motel that I call home
Just a few small hopes
And a few small dreams
Is all that place is resting on
Desiree lives two doors down
She's been there for way too long
Oh Yeah!
Sometimes when she's feelin' down
you know I hope she hears this song
CHORUS
On a bed of roses
Not beneath some motel light
On a bed of roses
She deserves to sleep tonight
She deserves to sleep tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
She comes home late everynight
I can hear her walkin' down my hall
She don't talk on the phone too much
When she does I hear it through my wall
Desiree don't have many friends
At least not many good ones
Oh, NO!
I may be just an ordinary man
But at least I'm someone to lean on
CHORUS

Sentado aquí gastado y herido frente a este viejo piano
Tratando de capturar el momento de esta mañana, no sé
Porque una botella de vodka todavía se encuentra en mi cabeza
Y una rubia me trajo pesadillas,
creo que ella todavía está en mi cama
mientras sueño con películas
Que no se harán sobre mí cuando esté muerto
Con un puño de acero me despierto
Y le doy un beso francés a la mañana
Mientras una banda marchando sigue
su propio ritmo en mi cabeza,
Mientras hablamos,
Acerca de todas las cosas que deseo creer,
Acerca del amor, de la verdad y
De lo que vos significás para mí
Y la verdad es... Nena, que vos sos todo lo que necesito
Quiero recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
Por esta noche duermo en una cama de clavos
Quiero estar tan cerca como lo está el Espíritu Santo
Y recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
Bueno, estoy tan lejos,
que cada paso que doy quiero que me lleve a casa
un rescate de Rey daría en moneditas cada noche,
sólo para ver a través de este teléfono público
Todavía me falta tiempo,
es duro esperar,
hasta que el pájaro que está posado en el cable
me lleve volando hacia vos,
Sólo cerraré mis ojos y susurraré:
Nena, el amor ciego es verdadero
Quiero recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
Por esta noche duermo en una cama de clavos
Quiero estar tan cerca como lo está el Espíritu Santo
Y recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
La resaca en el bar del hotel,
El wiskey se secó,
La peluca del barman está torcida,
Y Ella me guiña el ojo,
Yo pude haber dicho sí,
Pero me eché a reír tanto que creí que moría
Oh, sí... Cuando cierres tus ojos,
Sabés que yo voy a estar pensando en vos,
Mientras mi amante me llama,
Para ponerme en su candelero otra vez,
Esta noche no voy a estar solo,
Pero vos sabés que eso no significa
que no me sienta solo
no tengo nada que probarte,
porque sólo por vos moriría para defenderte
Quiero recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
Por esta noche duermo en una cama de clavos
Quiero estar tan cerca como lo está el Espíritu Santo
Y recostarte sobre un lecho de rosas
