We both lie silently still in the dead of the night Although we both lie close together We feel miles apart, inside Was it somethin' I said or something I did Did my words not come out right Tho' I tried not to hurt you Tho' I tried But I guess that's why they say Every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn Yea it does I listen to our favorite song playin' on the radio Hear the dj say love's a game of Easy come and easy go But I wonder does he know Has he ever felt like this And I know that you'd be here right now If I could have let you know somehow I guess Every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn Though it's been a while now I still feel so much pain Like the knife that cuts you the wound heals, But the scar, that scar remains. I know I could have saved our love that night If I'd know what to say Instead of making love We both made our separate ways Now I hear you've found somebody new And that I never meant that much to you To hear that tears me up inside And to see you cuts me like a knife, i guess Every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn
