Thorns and Roses (Revised 07/15/26)
Bill Fritz
(Intro)
Rose you were my beautiful flower
I thought of you every day and every hour
You were so sexy and sweet
And my love for you was so complete
(Chorus)
Rose, now you’re only a thorn in my side
You broke my heart and trampled my pride
You’re a wild flower who has to be free
So, I locked up my heart and threw away the key
(1st Verse)
A rose has soft pedals and sharp thorns
I got too close and my heart was torn
Our love is over, there is no heat
I’m a broken man in love’s defeat
(Chorus)
Rose, now you’re only a thorn in my side
You broke my heart and trampled my pride
You’re a wild flower who has to be free
So, I locked up my heart and threw away the key
(2nd Verse)
Rose I had to find another life away from you
And be with someone who will love me and be true
You’re both beautiful and alluring
But the pain you cause is too concerning
(Chorus)
Rose, now you’re only a thorn in my side
You broke my heart and trampled my pride
You’re a wild flower who has to be free
So, I locked up my heart and threw away the key
Outro)
Rose your thorns pierced my heart
You were trouble from the start
But now that we’re apart
I‘ll find the key that unlocks my broken heart (End)
