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
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
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 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 a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
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
---- Instrumental
Interlude ----
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
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
