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 it's dawn Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn I listen to your 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 it's 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 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 known 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 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
