Bed of Roses

Under my pillow, she left me a letter
Telling me why, I had to forget her
We could have had the life of our dreams
But sometimes things are not what they seem

It’s no bed of roses
Watching you fall
Another door closes
Another missed call

Love grows in the sunshine, not in the dark
It soothes your soul, and heats up your heart
We’ve all been hurt and we’ve all caused pain
But, let’s leave the door open and start all over again

It’s no bed of roses
Watching you fold
Another door closes
And you’re out in the cold

Always the brightest light in the room
Just like a magnet, I was drawn to you
Just be careful
When the pendulum swings
And those sweet kisses
Begin to sting

It’s no bed of roses
Watching you fall
Another door closes
Another missed call

It’s no bed of roses
Watching you fold
Another door closes
And you’re out in the cold
