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 something 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 its dawn

Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn



Yea it does



I listen to our 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 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 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 know 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 its dawn

Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn
