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 the chance
And turned a 7-2 off suit into a winning 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
