Every Rose Has Its Thorn
Lyrics and Songs by Poison - Go back

We both lie silently still in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart, inside
Was it somethin’ I said or somethin’ I did
Did my words not come out right
Tho’ I tried not to hurt you
Tho’ I tried
But I guess that’s why they say every rose has its thorn

Just like every night has its dawn
Jus tlike every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Yea it does

I listen to our favorite song playin’ on the radio
Hear the DJ 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 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 his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn

Though it’s been a while now
I 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

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 its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
