Lyrics
0:07Some say love it is a river
0:15That drowns the tender reed
0:22Some say love it is a razor
0:30That leaves your soul to bleed
0:37Some say love it is a hunger
0:45An endless aching need
0:53I say love it is a flower
1:01And you its only seed
1:12It's the heart afraid of breaking
1:20That never learns to dance
1:27It's the dream afraid of waking
1:35That never takes the chance
1:42It's the one who won't be taken
1:50Who cannot seem to give
1:57And the soul afraid of dying
2:05That never learns to live
2:16When the night has been too lonely
2:23And the road has been too long
2:31And you think that love is only
2:38For the lucky and the strong
2:46Just remember in the winter
2:53Far beneath the bitter snows
3:01Lies the seed that with the sun's love
3:09In 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
