Thorn In My Side - Tom Prior

Do you remember when,

We kept the world locked outside,

We didn’t need much then,

We were alright, you know.

Good as it ever was,

We couldn’t right all those wrongs,

Your life is moving on,

I remember the times

You used to light up,

My darkest night

Like the star in my sky

Ooh oh oh ooh

But now I’m sleeping,

Sleeping at night,

With a thorn in my side,

Ooh oh oh ooh.

I heard those wedding bells,

You felt the chain round your neck,

Sometimes it’s hard to tell,

Between love and regret,

I know,

The evening is tired,

The world is just waking outside,

Life is in front of you,

I’m stuck in the time,

You used to light up,

My darkest night

Like the star in my sky

Ooh oh oh ooh

But now I’m sleeping,

Sleeping at night,

With a thorn in my side,

Ooh oh oh ooh.

And there’s bad blood in my veins,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Nothing ever stays the same,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Bad thoughts in my brain,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

You used to light up,

My darkest night,

Treading water till I could,

Swim with the tide,

Now I’m left with another,

Ocean of time,

And a thorn in my side,

Ooh oh oh oohh

And there’s bad blood in my veins,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Nothing ever stays the same,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Bad thoughts in my brain,

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Now I’m sleeping,

Sleeping at night,

With a thorn in my side

Ooh oh oh ooh,

Now I’m sleeping,

Sleeping at night,

With a thorn in my side
