Mary Coughlan - There Is a Bed lyrics

There is a bed where I can end my days
And think about the roads
I've run the miles I've come
There is a bed where troubles melt away
My lonely hours or hours with you
The times that we've come through

There is a bed where we shared times of love
And out of love those nights
Are memories best forgot
We'd argue about trivial things
Slept apart a wall we built among the sheets
There is a bed where first we both made love
And left the marks to remind us
Of how good it felt
The hard, the soft, the sweating nights
How we'd build up before we'd climb the tower

There is a bed where years will make us wise
Truth and lies defeat
Despise we're forgiving
The sheets are cradle birth to death
The twists and turns of love
And life we're living

There is bed where nights I lay awake
To think about my future to forget my past
My bed a boat to sail the seas
To land where safety finds me
Gripping to the mast

And though I feel the years
Slip through my fingers
Sorrow lingers and won't go away
There is a bed which is my sanctuary
A bed where I can end my days
