Make The Bed

MAKE THE BED - Written by Carroll Bryant

I know that sometimes with feelings

Emotions can go stray 

It's been so long since I felt any love

In the love making that we make

Sometimes it seems as if it's a touch

And every now and then inside our kiss

It's the passionate fire of our passionate desire, girl

That we used to have, that I miss

Take it all for granted? Well, maybe we do

But before I'll admit that what we have is through

Let's make the bed in which we lay

Say the words that I know we want to say

I don't want you to go so baby, won't you stay?

And help me make the bed in which we lay

If it's just a matter of some kind of doubt

Then let us find a place where we can stand

Sometimes, some things, can be turned around

Body to body, and woman to man

To know what you want and then to wonder

Is confusion that is stored away from the start

To say that it's a spell we both are under

Is to play dangerous games with the heart

Hanging on a clothes line, and wait just to dry

Isn't gonna stop the fucking tears that we cry

Let's make the bed in which we lay

Say the words that I know we want to say

I don't want you to go so baby, won't you stay?

And help me make the bed in which we lay

How many times are we gonna fight

Before we have to realize

How many fits are we gonna throw tonight

Before one of us walks out that door unsanitized

Let's make the bed in which we lay

Say the words that I know we want to say

I don't want you to go so baby, won't you stay?

And help me make the bed in which we lay

Make the bed in which we play
