[Verse 1] Sitting in the dark with your picture in my hand Wondering if you'd ever really understand That I'd walk through fire, I'd brave the coldest night Just to be the reason you're holding on tight You wear your armor, keep your guard up high But I see the softness hiding in your eyes I know you've been hurt, I know you've been burned But I'm here to give you everything you've earned [Pre-Chorus] So lay down your defenses Let me show you what this could be I'll trade all my tomorrows For one night of you and me [Chorus] I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses Strip away the thorns, forget what pain is I'll be your shelter when the world explodes and Give you something real, no more broken promises A bed of roses, where we can let go Tangled up together, losing control I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses And love you 'til the morning light exposes us [Verse 2] You say you're afraid of falling too deep That love's just a gamble, a promise we can't keep But I'm all in, baby, I'm betting it all I'll catch you every time before you fall We could build a kingdom or watch it turn to dust But I'd rather burn with you than never feel this rush So take my hand, let's dive into the unknown 'Cause with you, I've never felt more at home [Pre-Chorus] So lay down your defenses Let me show you what this could be I'll trade all my tomorrows For one night of you and me [Chorus] I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses Strip away the thorns, forget what pain is I'll be your shelter when the world explodes and Give you something real, no more broken promises A bed of roses, where we can let go Tangled up together, losing control I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses And love you 'til the morning light exposes us [Bridge] Yeah, love's got thorns, but I'll bleed for you Every scar, every wound, it's all worth pushing through We could play it safe, keep our distance, stay alone Or we could risk it all and finally come home [Chorus] I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses Strip away the thorns, forget what pain is I'll be your shelter when the world explodes and Give you something real, no more broken promises A bed of roses, where we can let go Tangled up together, losing control I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses And love you 'til the morning light exposes us [Outro] In a bed of roses, just you and me Where the petals fall like a sweet remedy In a bed of roses, we'll find our way And I'll love you harder with every single day
