Song 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 his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn

Yeah it does

I listen to her favorite song
playing 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

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

Solo

I know I could have saved our love that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' love
We both made our separate ways

But 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

Have always liked this song, didn't realize how true it was until my marriage ended. Truer words have never been sung in a song.

The song was written when Bret Michaels's girl left him for another guy. And the fact that most of their songs were written by him and the band makes them have that much more meaning!!!!!

Bret is a very sensitive person even though he did front a rock band. And I don't see how anyone would leave bret for someone else!!!!! he is so sexy!!!!!!!!! :love: the song is one of the best of all times that can't be questioned , poison is one of the all time best bands ever!!! I wish they were still big I think they are so great

This song annoys me. And everytime I hear this song mentioned it makes me think of this really bad audition on NZ Idol... Maybe it was that audition that put me off this song forever...

Yeah, I agree with poisonfan69. In a million years, I could NEVER understand why any woman would leave Bret Michales. He is so sexy and talented, any woman would be lucky to have him love her.
