Build you a bed of roses
  to dream in as petals descend
  which crowd around your golden pillow
  where every rainbow ends
  the rainbow ends
  the rainbow must end
  
  our south facing windows will gaze
  on a dazzling crystalline sea
  which i'll smooth like our sheets every morning
  then retrieve sunken dreams carefully
  swap your pains, for mother of pearl
  i'll do all your laughing and crying
  with an ace up each sleeve for you girl
  
  i promise you my love if you want it
  if you're sinking, i'll sing you my psalm
  in this craziest of times
  my rope ladder you can climb
  and the scariest of storms i will calm
  
  i'll lie through my teeth if you need it
  kiss it better, should tragedy strike
  all your sorrows i'll impale
  gladly go straight to jail
  have the devil dance a jig if you like
  
  consider your wishes all granted
  cream from a bottomless cup
  i'll be at your beck and call endless
  like a kitchen roll, just use me up
  use me up
  just use me up
  the drizzle i'll turn into fine wine
  to serve on a tray in the den
  and all i'll have raining from heaven
  are pennies, pounds, deutschmarks or yen
  i'll turn the clouds to diamanté
  and pile them up each rosy red dawn
  into castles, to keep bad at bay
  and only good moods i'll allow in
  the dark ones must wait by the door
  have them feed all heartaches
  to a huge flock of doves
  who will pull our dreamboat from the shore
  
  i promise you my love if you want it...
