Thorn

Once upon a time, we had it all Didn't know that love could be so heartless Saw you as the one who'd never fall A safety, you're my night light in the darkness Listening to Stevie in the car Always tryna find a way to drive out your problems All this pressure inside I shouldn't have to carry that Never gonna give you up But givin up is where you left me That thorn in your side is hurtin me (hurtin me) And I'm closin my eyes so I can't see I thought that we could have it all I lay down just to break your fall, but now That thorn in your side is hurting me You're hurting me And I can't leave I thought growing up would stop it getting worse Cause I never saw grown-ups wearing plasters But nothing could prepare me for the worst Nothing could prepare me for the aftermath And I just wanted you to run back in I just wanted you to say "We will survive this" You'll survive this, yeah, oh Never gonna give you up But givin up is where you left me That thorn in your side is hurtin me (hurtin me) And I'm closin my eyes so I can't see I thought that we could have it all I lay down just to break your fall, but now That thorn in your side is hurtin me You're hurting me And I can't leave I never felt that you should be perfect (ooh) It's killing me that I'm so broken (ooh) I'm sorry I've struggled to say this (ooh) Now I'm saying (ooh) I'm breaking (ooh) I just wish that you dealt with your hurtin That thorn in your side is hurtin me (hurtin me) And I'm closing my eyes so I can't see I thought that we could have it all I lay down just to break your fall, but now That thorn in your side is hurtin me You're hurtin me And I can't leave
