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
an endless aching 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
And 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
