Every Rose Has Its Thorn

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

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 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 a sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn
