Thorn In My Pride

Lyrics: Chris Robinson, Rich Robinson
Music: Chris Robinson, Rich Robinson

A Black Crowes song, sung by Chris Robinson with Phil Lesh & Friends in 2012.

Wake me when the day breaks
Show me how the sun shines
Tell me about your heartaches
Who could be so unkind

Do you dream to touch me
And smile down deep inside
Or could you just kill me, hey
It's hard to make up your mind sometimes

My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride
My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride

Are you wanting inspiration
You spill your secrets on me
Then you tell me with a whisper
Of things that will never be

Do you hear me breathing
Does it make you want to scream
Did you ever like a bad dream
Yeah, sometimes life is obscene

My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride
My angels, my devils, baby
My thorn in my pride
My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride
My angels, my devils
Thorn in my pride

Lover, cover me with your sleep
Let your love light shine, let it shine
Lover, cover me with a good dream
Oh, let your love light
Oh, let your love light shine

All I wan't to know
Do you ever wan't to let it shine
Do you ever wan't to let it shine, baby
Your love light, your love light
Listen

Lover, cover me with your sleep
Let your love light shine, let it shine
Lover, cover me with a good dream
Let your love light shine, let it shine

Lover, cover me with your sleep
Let your love light shine, let it shine
Lover, cover me with a good dream
Let your love light shine, let it shine

My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride
My angels, my devils
My thorn in my pride
Thorn in my pride
