Lyrics
I was down, broke down in shambles
Burned the wick at both ends of the candle
You were grace, you were mercy
The one thing I let close that didn't burn me
And ooh, you showed me why
Every thorn has its rose
Every rough has a diamond
Every cloud I've ever known
Had the sun somewhere behind it
Every lost has a found
Look at me, girl, standing next to you right now
Thought I'd always be alone
But every thorn has its rose
You rolled the dice, you took a chance
And turned a seven-two offsuit into a winnin' hand
And you say I was never broken
Just missing half my heart, and I didn't know it
And ooh, you saved my life
Every thorn has its rose
Every rough has a diamond
Every cloud I've ever known
Had the sun somewhere behind it
Every lost has a found
Look at me, girl, standing next to you right now
Thought I'd always be alone
But every thorn has its rose
And ooh, you showed me why
Every thorn has its rose
Every rough has a diamond
Every cloud I've ever known
Had the sun somewhere behind it
Every lost has a found
Look at me, girl, standing next to you right now
Thought I'd always be alone
But every thorn has its rose
