You're that one special woman
I thought I'd never find
With the strength to be gentle
And the courage to be kind

Though it hasn't all been roses
Still I know you understand
One of these nights
When we're sharing a dream

I'm gonna take you by the hand
And lay you down on a bed of roses
In that peaceful shelter
Only love can provide
I'll lay you down on a bed of roses
And then I'll lay me down, right by your side

There's no diamond on your finger
Just a simple wedding band
Since your knight in shining armor
Is just an ordinary man

Though I promised you a kingdom
And we don't have all we planned
One of these nights
When we're making believe

I'm gonna take you by the hand
And lay you down on a bed of roses
In that peaceful shelter
Only love can provide
I'll lay you down on a bed of roses
And then I'll lay me down, right by your side
And then I'll lay me down, right by your side
