Rest in the Bed lyrics

[Verse]
There lies a man of my heart
A fine and complete work of art
Here I, his woman, his home and his heart
And proud to be playing that part
And proud to be playing that part

[Chorus]
Rest in the bed of my bones
All that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live

[Verse]
The bite will come
But you'll feel your call as a son
As I believe in you

[Verse]
The first hill is the hardest, I'm sure
Where all shadows come to the shore
Know that it's you and I to the end
And all I want from life is to hold your hand

[Chorus]
All that I have are these bones
And all that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live
[Verse]
The sirens come
They always will
But the dart between my heart and his
Is as good as a diamond chain

[Chorus]
Rest in the bed of my bones
All that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live
