Lyrics

They’ve been up and down this body of mine
And held me with every tear I cried
And gave me a warm, safe place to stay
Why do I keep making the same mistakes
And they listen to me when I play my guitar
Getting ready for my gig at the bar
Playing these strings is my only escape
But when my fingers start to bleed
I guess I oughta take a break

Well these bedsheets of mine
Well they’ve had a time
Holding me under those covers
While I cried about a few other guys
Well it’s hard to understand
How a piece of cloth can take your hand
And make all of your problems turn into a grain of sand
Well these bedsheets of mine
They’ll do me fine

While I lay awake and my heart aches
They’ll dry my tears and say it’s okay
Go get some rest and save the pain for tomorrow
Cause when you wake, your heart will still be hollow

Well these bedsheets of mine
Well they’ve had a time
Holding me under those covers
While I cried about a few other guys
Well it’s hard to understand
How a piece of cloth can take your hand
And make all of your problems turn into a grain of sand
Well these bedsheets of mine
They’ll do me fine

This is my safe place this is where I’ll stay
Cause these days have been dark and gray
I can’t get up so right here I’ll just lay

Well these bedsheets of mine
Well they’ve had a time
Holding me under those covers
While I cried about a few other guys
Well it’s hard to understand
How a piece of cloth can take your hand
And make all of your problems turn into a grain of sand
Well these bedsheets of mine
They’ll do me fine
Oh well, these bedsheets of mine
They’ll do me fine
