Well, I've been up to the mountain   Seen the ashes down below   I had breakfast with the wise man   He told me what he thought I should know      And I've been to bed with Jezebel   I found the well was deep   And I'd trade in my ambitions   For a warmer place to sleep      There, I'd trade in my ambitions   For a warmer place to sleep   Kick it in one time, yeah      Well, I've seen the heart of darkness   Read the writing on the wall   And the voice out in the desert   Was the voice I heard out in the hall      And once he called me Abel   And once he called me Cain   And for forty days and forty nights   I slept out in the rain      Girl, can you share your warm bed tonight   I need to find a safe retreat   Someplace where they can't see my eyes   I need to find a warmer place to sleep      I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep      Well, I've rested in the devil's arms   I've chased the hounds of hell   I played truth or dare with the angels   And as far as I can tell      That a heart of gold ain't no better   Than a heart torn from the streets   And I'd trade in my heart of stone   For a warmer place to sleep      There I'd trade in my heart of stone   For a warmer place to sleep      Girl, can you share your warm bed tonight   I need to find a safe retreat   Someplace where I can't see my eyes   I need to find a warmer place to sleep      I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep   I need to find a warmer place to sleep
