Every Rose Has It’s Thorn
Poison 1988
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night
Though we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said, or something I did
Did my words 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
I listen to our favorite song playing on the radio
Hear the D.J. say Love’s 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 right here
Now if I could’ve 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 awhile 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 know 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
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
