"Bed Of Roses" has their best song lyrics I would say. If I would start quoting I'd have to quote the whole song. But lines like
"As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead"
or
"a king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night to see through this payphone"
are amongst the deepest lines Jon came up with.
The whole KTF album is full of clever lyrics, my favourites being "If I Was Your Mother" and "Dry County".
Other songs I admire for their lyrics are
- I'd Die For You
- Wanted
- I'll Be There For You
- Blood On Blood
- (It's Hard) Letting You Go
- My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms
- Damned
- Something To Believe In
- (Queen Of New Orleans)
- Say It Isn't So
- One Wild Night
- Last Man Standing
- Novocaine
I have to say that in the 1990s they had their heyday writing good and honest songlyrics.
