A Rose Between Two Thorns - Crystal Gayle

She is weeping, there’s no sleeping

Underneath their angry roar

They can’t hear her, she can’t figure

What they’re always fighting for

Every night they end up this way

Tearing each other apart

And hearing them say she’s the reason they stay together

Just breaks her heart

She’s a rose between two thorns

A calm between two storms

And through the bitter words and slamming doors

Still there grows a rose between two thorns

They fight each other but they both love her

She’s their only common ground

She can’t take it, but she’ll have to make it

Someday they won’t be around

A day don’t go by she don’t wonder why

They brought her into this world

So each night she prays that it won’t be this way

When she has her own little girl

Shes a rose between two thorns

A calm between two storms

And through the bitter words and slamming doors

Still there grows a rose between two thorns

Still there grows a rose between two thorns
