Thorn In My Heart - Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

A thorn was left in my heart by a rose

Of fragrance and beauty divine

A thorn was left in my heart by a rose

A rose that I thought was all mine

Someone else got the rose, I got the thorn

Now her fragrance is just a memory

A thorn was life in my heart by a rose

Whose love was never meant for me

A thorn was left in my heart by a rose

Causing tears to fall like the rain

A thorn was left in my heart by a rose

Whose leaving left sorrow and pain

Someone else got the rose, I got the thorn

Now her fragrance is just a memory

A thorn was life in my heart by a rose

Whose love was never meant for me
