Bed of Roses
2
by Bonnie Hayes
3
from the album "Bette of Roses"
4
Long, long ago, where the tall grass grows
5
and the still air is sweet with summer flowers;
6
in the shade by the stream I would lie awake and dream,
7
and in dreaming I would while away the hours.
8
Long, long gone yesterday,
9
and the castle and the prince and the God to whom I prayed.
10
Well, I made, and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses.
11
I'm tired of trying to be free.
12
Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses.
13
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
14
Well, I wasted years,
15
all the useless, bitter tears.
16
If I'd known I'd have stopped it at the start.
17
I knew life was long,
18
and I knew life could go wrong,
19
but I never knew my life would break my heart.
20
Dreams die harder than pride.
21
I have learned my lesson well.
22
I will put them both aside.
23
'Cause I made and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses.
24
I'm tired and I'm dying to be free.
25
Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses.
26
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
27
Roses die, and all the fairy tales are lies,
28
and I guess that's just too bad for poor old me.
29
'Cause I made, and I'm gonna lie in my bed of roses.
30
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
31
Bed of roses I believed my life would be.
