we both lie silently still in the dead of the night
although we both lie close together we feel miles apart inside
was it something i said or something i did
did my words not come out right
though i tried not to hurt you
though 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 a sad sad song
every rose has its thorn
yeah it does
i listen to our favorite song playing 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 a sad sad song
every rose has its thorn
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 a love that night
if i’d known what to say
instead of makin’ love
we both made our separate ways
4
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
