When I Was Bed

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

Perfumed his hair with white powders
removed the bitter taste left on his cheek

Perfumed his hair with white powders
removed the bitter taste left on his cheek

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

The antiquity of that one moment
how filthy his shoes had been

And how soon we forget the smell of survival
blanket it with roses and sick tears

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

Ooohh, when I was bed
before she spread lilacs on the sheets

Ooohh, when I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed

When I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed
when I was bed

When I was bed

When I was bed
