Teena Marie - The Rose N' Thorn lyrics

rate me

Still my heart the dawn is filled with tears

I never thought that I would find you here

Wait for me be merciful be kind

Embrace the joy in pain when love is blind

And if you cry just know that I would never say goodbye

If you speak of me just by chance

Or hear me calling through your next romance

I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are

Kind of blue be virtuous at best

To know the pain of too much tenderness

And if you cry

Just know that I could never tell a lie

If you hear my voice just by chance

Or feel me touch you in a lover's dance

I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are

I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are

And if you cry

Just know that I would never say goodbye

If you speak of me just by chance

Or hear me calling through your next romance

I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are

I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are

It's always darkest just before the dawn
