bed of roses

you're that one special woman

i thought i'd never find

with the stream to be gentle

and the courage to be kind. though it hasn't all been roses

still i know you understand

one of these nights

i'm gonna take you by the hand. and lay you down on a bed of roses

in tha peaceful shelter only love can provide

i'll lay you down on a bed of roses

and then i'll lay me down right by your side. there's no diamond on your finger

just a simple wedding bend

since your knight in shining armor

is just an ordinary man. though i promised you a kingdom

and we don't have all we planned

one of these nights when we're making believe

i'm gonna take you by the hand. and lay you down on a bed of roses

in tha peaceful shelter only love can provide

i'll lay you down on a bed of roses

and then i'll lay me down right by your side.
