Theres thorns on the cactus tree
Theres thorns on the rose
Theres thorns in the heart of me
That nobody knows
They tear at the flesh until
The tears start to rise
They form in my heart
But they fall from anastasias eyes
And I was lost in the wilderness
Without courage or hope
I was setting my signal fires
And watching the smoke
When out of the smoke appeared
The sweetest surprise
And I knew Id been found
When first I looked into anastasias eyes
Theres thorns on the cactus tree
Theres thorns on the rose
Theres thorns in the heart of me
That nobody knows
But finally Ive found out where my salvation lies
It lies in the love that lives in anastasias eyes
It lies in the love that lives in anastasias eyes
