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 his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
Yeah it does!
I listen to your favourite
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 his 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 making love
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 his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
