My Own Sweet Bed Tonight Lyrics - Eleanor Mcevoy

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 

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 just too hard to explain 

So take some comfort in your whiskey 

It's often been my friend 

And if it warms a lonely body 

Well, who's to say it's bad 

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 just too hard to explain 

If kindness takes a little longer 

It's worth the extra time 

Some have lives so long in darkness 

They don't even recognize the light 

Understand, there's a child in everyone 

We should watch what we say 

'Cause everyone has their battles and their pain 

Hidden somewhere away 

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 hard to explain 

And 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 just too hard to explain 

I will go to my own sweet bed tonight
