BonJovi has used the phrase "a bed of roses" in the very first line of this song. However, it has been set in contrast to "a bed of nails" which has stressed on a different meaning. The lines perhaps tell about the sacrifice of the speaker who is willing to sleep on the bed of nails to allow the listener to sleep on the bed of roses
Sittinghere wasted and wounded At this old piano Trying hard to capture The moment this morning I don't know 'Cause a bottle of vodka Is still lodged in my head And some blond gave me nightmares I think she is still in my bed As I dream about movies They won't make of me when I'm dead With an ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the morning

TonightI won't be alone. But you know that don't. Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove. For it's you that I'd die to defend. I want to lay you down on a bed of roses. For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails. I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is. And lay you down on bed of roses.
