The Rose

[00:04.67] Some say love, it is a river
[00:14.05] That drowns the tender reed
[00:22.29] Some say love, it is a razor
[00:29.73] That leaves your soul to bleed
[00:37.37] Some say love, it is a hunger
[00:45.16] An endless aching need
[00:52.35] I say love, it is a flower
[01:01.63] And you, its only seed
[01:10.45] It's the heart, afraid of breaking
[01:19.85] That never learns to dance
[01:26.70] It's the dream, afraid of waking
[01:34.06] That never takes the chance
[01:40.97] It's the one who won't be taken
[01:49.41] Who cannot seem to give
[01:56.58] And the soul, afraid of dying
[02:04.15] That never learns to live
[02:13.21] When the night has been too lonely
[02:22.33] And the road has been too long
[02:29.01] And you think that love is only
[02:35.97] For the lucky and the strong
[02:43.19] Just remember in the winter
[02:50.19] Far beneath the bitter snows
[02:56.69] Lies the seed that with the sun's love
[03:05.42] In the spring becomes the rose
[03:14.10]
