Some say love, it is a ri-ver
That drowns the ten-der reed
Some say love, it is a ra-zor
That leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hun-ger
An end-less, ach-ing need
I say love, it is a flower
And you, its 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 cannot 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
When you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love
In the spring, becomes the rose...
