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 somethin' 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 it's dawn
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
(Yea it does)

I listen to your 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 it 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 if 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
