[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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, yeah, it does [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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
