Bed Of Roses

Hey, I'm growing a bed of roses Bitter grapes make the sweetest wine The holes I'm digging are just seeds I'm sowing For my bed of roses, where I'm sleeping just fine I'm sleeping just fine He said he couldn't put roots down Tears fell on fertile ground And now little does he know I've been sitting here watching 'em grow I burned his letters and memories Spread ashes on the seeds And now they're reaching towards the sky About broken heart high Hey, I'm growing a bed of roses Bitter grapes make the sweetest wine The holes I'm digging are just seeds I'm sowing For my bed of roses, where I'm sleeping just fine I'm sleeping just fine Just when I'd given up, given in That sun came 'round the bend And it's been shining on the spot Where he said he loved me not Life ain't a garden of Eden Takes time tilling and weeding To help you heal yourself Get a little dirt under your nails Hell, I'm growing a bed of roses Bitter grapes make the sweetest wine The holes I'm digging are just seeds and dreams I'm sowing For my bed of roses, where I'm sleeping just fine I'm sleeping just fine Ah, come on (Hey, I'm growing) (Hey, hey I'm growing) (Hey, I'm growing) (Hey, hey I'm growing)
