We both lie silent and still in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together we're miles apart inside
Was it something I said or somethin' I did
Did my words not come out right?
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried
Girl, I guess that's why they say
Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
I listen to our favorite song playin' on the radio
Hear the DJ say he loves a game of easy come and easy go
But I wonder does he know, has it ever felt like this?
And I know that if you'd be here right now
I could have let you know somehow
Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn, yeah it does
Though it's been a while now I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you
The wound heals but the scar, that scar remains
I know I could have saved the band that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' music we both made our separate ways
And now I hear you 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 a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn, every rose has its thorn
