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

Every rose has its thorn

Just like every night has it's dawn

Just like every cowboy

sings his sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn

Yeah it does

I listen to your 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 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 every rose has its thorn

Just like every night has it's dawn

Just like every cowboy

sings his sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn

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

(freestyle rap or ad libs)

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 heard 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 it's dawn

Just like every cowboy

sings his sad, sad song

Every rose has its thorn
