"Bed Of Roses" lyrics

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

Aw come on

(Hey, I'm growing)
(Hey, hey I'm growing)
(Hey, I'm growing)
(Hey, hey I'm growing)
