Lyrics
0:21Some say love it is a river
0:30That drowns the tender reed
0:38Some say love it is a razor
0:47That leaves your soul to bleed
0:54Some say love it is a hunger
1:04An endless aching need
1:12I say love it is a flower
1:21And you , its only seed
1:34It's the heart afraid of breaking
1:42That never learns to dance
1:49It's the dream afraid of waking
1:58That never takes the chance
2:05It's the one who won't be taken
2:14Who cannot seem to give
2:22And the soul afraid of dying
2:30That never learns to live
3:20When the night has been too lonely
3:27And the road has been too long
3:34And you think that love is only
3:42For the lucky and the strong
3:49Just remember in the winter
3:56Far beneath the bitter snows
4:05Lies the seed that with the sun's love
4:13In the spring becomes the rose
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 snows Lies the seed that with the sun's love In the spring becomes the rose
