Lyrics
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
Listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio
Well the DJ says loves a game of easy come and - Easy go
But I wonder, does he know
Has he ever felt like this?
Well 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 a 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 of making love, we both made our separate ways
And 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, I guess...
[Chorus]
