We both lie silently still
In the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart insideWas it something I said or something I did
Did my words not come out right
Though I tried not to hurt you
Ya, I tried but I guess that's why they sayEvery 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 doesI listen to our favorite song
Playing on the radio
Hear the DJ say love's a game
Of easy come and easy goBut I wonder, does he know
Has he ever felt like this
And I know that you'd be here right now
If I, I could let you know somehowEvery rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thornThough it's been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you, the wound heals
But that scar, that scar will remainEvery rose, every rose
Every rose has its thornI 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 waysAnd 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 knifeEvery 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
