Eleanor Mcevoy - My Own Sweet Bed Tonight lyrics

While I'd like a glass of whiskey

It will not change my mind.

So if it's offered for that reason

Or if you're just being kind.

Chorus

I will go to my own sweet bed tonight

I won't try to explain.

I will go to my own sweet bed tonight

It's much too hardto explain.

So take some comfort in that whiskey

It's often been my friend

And if it warms a lonely body

Well who's to say it's bad.

Repeat chorus

If kindness takes a little longer

It's worth the extra time

Some have lives so long in darkness

They don't even recognise the light.

Understandthere's a child in everyone

We should watch what we say.

Everyone has their battles and their pain

Hidden somewhere away.

Repeat chorus
