The Rose Lyrics

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love, it is a hunger And endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower And you it's only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taken who can not seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love In the spring becomes the rose
