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 the words not come out right

Though I tried not to hurt you

Though I tried

But I guess that's why they say



Chorus:

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 our favorite song

playing on the radio

Hear the DJ say loves 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 somehow

If I could have let you know somehow

I guess



Chorus



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



Solo



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



But 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



Chorus
