We both sit silent still, at the end of the night
Although we both sit 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 it's thorn'
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy
Sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has it's thorn
(Yeah it does)
Listening to our favorite song
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
(Chorus)
'Every rose has it's thorn'
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy
Sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has it's 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
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
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 it's thorn'
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy
Sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has it's thorn
