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

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, hmm

Awe, come on

Hey, I'm growing

Hey, hey, I'm growing

Hey, I'm growing

Hey, hey, I'm growing

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, hmm
