Bed of Roses Ruhan du Toit (Ft. Deon van der Merwe)

[Verse 1]
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, what you bring to me
And thе truth is, baby you're all that I need

[Chorus]
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bеd of nails
Oh, I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

[Verse 2]
And I'm so far away, each step that I take on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I give each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
'til the bird on the wire puts me back to you
And I'll just close my eyes and whisper
Baby, our love is true
