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 somethin' 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
[chorus:]
every rose has its thorn
just like every night has it's dawn
just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
every rose has its thorn
Yea it does
I listen to your 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 it 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]
Though it's been a while now
i can 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 known what to say
instead if 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
[chorus]
